Introspective cult-rockers Interpol have announced a one off gig in Manchester to warm up for their festival performances this summer.

The show will take place on Tuesday 8th July at the Manchester Apollo, with tickets priced at £20.

The band are already scheduled to perform at T in the Park and the Irish Oxegen festival between 11th and 13th July, followed by a set at Latitude Festival in Suffolk on 17th July.

This year’s festival performances follow Interpol’s enormous success on the British festival circuit last year, when they performed at both Reading and Leeds, Oxegen, and T in the Park.
