The album is set to drop Sept. 9, while Bastille is smack in the middle of a bunch of festival appearances. A number of those summer festival gigs are in North America: Chicago’s Lollapalooza July 28; Osheaga in Montreal July 30; and 89X Chill On The Hill Fest in Detroit Sept. 30 are all included in the plan.

The solo shows kick off in Bournemouth, England Oct. 28 and mostly stay within the UK and Germany, with a few other stops in Netherlands, Sweden, Denmark and Czech Republic thrown in. The last performance planned right now is at the Mitsubishi Electric Hall in Dusseldorf, Germany Nov. 29.

Bastille, a HotStar in 2014, stormed onto the international scene with its 2013 debut Bad Blood and has toured with likes of Mitsubishi Electric Hall. The Electo-pop sounds on its first album propelled the group to a truckload of award nominations and a few wins, most notably for the Brit Awards’ British Breakthrough Act in 2014.

Here’s the first single off the new album:
