Frightened Rabbit have announced a special tour to mark the 10th anniversary of their acclaimed second album, ‘The Midnight Organ Fight’. Full dates and ticket details are below.

Listed by NME as one of the best albums of 2008 and of the last decade, the band’s acclaimed second album and cult favourite will be a decade old next year. NME hailed it as “bleak [but] also utterly beautiful, scathingly honest, darkly hilarious and impossibly grandoise”.

To celebrate the anniversary, the Scottish alt-folk band will be performing the record in full with a run of shows in the US and the UK.

“If you are one of those souls who was around when ‘The Midnight Organ Fight’ was first released, coming to watch us scrap our way through those songs as we toured the album and ourselves into the ground, you may be interested to learn that it all happened nearly ten years ago,” said the band in a statement. “To mark the anniversary, we’ll be playing a few shows performing TMOF in its entirety.”

They added: “This album holds a dear place in our collective heart. It was the one that allowed us to believe that we could do this band thing. Really do it. It’s the one that made the people in front of us SING. Really sing. It’s the album I still talk about most with people I meet at our shows. The wee bugger will not go away, and we are alright with that.”
