The tour announcement follows the release of 'Dead To The World', a remarkable new track taken from Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds' eagerly anticipated fourth studio album 'Council Skies', due for release 2nd June via Sour Mash Records.

The epic 'Dead To The World' is "by some distance my favourite tune on the album," Noel says. "It has this film noir vibe. It's not like anything else I've ever done before. It's very melancholic, but I like that. I'm a Gemini - I'm as up as I am down, and the trick is to meet somewhere in the middle and turn that into music."

The release of 'Dead To The World' follows fan excitement as mysterious orchestral clips filmed by Noel himself at the legendary Abbey Road Studios, London emerged on social media at the beginning of the year. Watch below.

'Dead To The World' is one of several songs on the album that boast strings arranged by the hugely talented Rosie Danvers, a long-time High Flying Birds collaborator. Noel says "Rosie gets what I do. Spending a weekend recording strings in Abbey Road... that's one of the great privileges in a musician's life. It sounds majestic."
