Frost* have announced a warm-up show ahead of their upcoming UK tour.

They recently revealed they would embark on a seven-date tour in June in support of new album Falling Satellites, which is due to launch on May 27.

Now they’ve added a gig at Reading’s Sub89 on June 15 – two days before kickstarting the main run of shows.

Tickets for the Reading show are available via SeeTickets.

Mainman Jem Godfrey said of the album, which features a guest appearance from guitar virtuoso Joe Satriani: “It’s been a long time coming, but we got there in the end. I think this is our strongest album to date and moves the sound forwards whilst still referencing what’s gone before.

“It’s also great to have finally co-written some songs with John Mitchell in a Frost* context. The end results were better than either of us could have imagined, we just can’t wait to get out and play it all live now.”

Falling Satellites will be available on limited-edition CD mediabook, including two bonus tracks, gatefold 2LP and CD and as a digital download.
