Joanna Gruesome

For fans of: The Jesus and Mary Chain, Shop Assistants, Honeyblood

CARDIFF 'noise pop' group Joanna Gruesome better make the most of their time off this summer because the next few months are looking pretty hectic.

The six-piece will be touring the UK in September, starting off in Manchester and taking in a homecoming show before finishing in Brighton.

Then they are jetting off to the United States for dates in October, all in support of their second album Peanut Butter.

The tour also marks a new era for the band after the departure of singer Alanna McArdle.

She has been replaced by Kate Stonestreet from Pennycress and Roxy Brennan of Trust Fund, Grubs, Two White Cranes and Towel.

- Joanna Gruesome perform at Islington Mill on September 18.
