We Are Scientists have announced a series of US tour dates as part of the band's World Tour launching this month, including major UK and European festivals. The band's fourth album, Barbara, will hit stores on June 15th and the U.S. tour will kick off on July 3rd in Albany, New York. The album follows the We Are Scientists rock music brand by including beat-driven, melody-wrapped, and harmony-draped, lyrically-savvy tracks.
W.A.S. is Keith Murray and Chris Cain. On Barbara, the duo recruited a brand new set of hands and feet behind the drum kit in the shape of Master Andy Burrows (ex-Razorlight drummer).
