Low air new tune "Some Hearts (At Christmas Time)" ahead of their festive tour

"To friends who have moved away and friends who have passed on this year," write Low in an accompanying message. "To one and all, especially those who are alone, we wish you a Merry Christmas and new hope for the new year. May we all find ways to lift each other."

The Duluth band's newest track is out now - the same day they begin a festive tour where they'll be performing material from their '99 release Christmas.

Low's Christmassy tour kicks off tonight (1 December) with a sold-out show in Norwich. They've got a bunch of other dates across the UK - including two London dates at the Union Chapel - before they head to Ireland to finish off the run.

The band's Salford date on 8 December (sold out) will take place at the 80-capacity Eagle Inn, and will comprise "an exclusive set of all-new material never before performed in Europe" in aid of local charity Booth Centre.
