The Killers frontman tells Xfm he’ll be bringing ‘Flamingo’ to these shores.

Brandon Flowers has told Xfm that he will be touring the UK this year in support of his debut solo album, ‘Flamingo’. His backing band is said to consist of friends and past-touring buddies, with a stage show that’s likely to grow steadily into the live extravaganza associated with The Killers.

“Yes, we’ll definitely be over this year”, he told Xfm. “I think it’s going to be very meat-and-potatoes at first. We’re going to learn the songs and then learn how to present them. A Killers song will creep in every now and then. It’s inevitable”.

And of his back-up band:

“It’s a collection of guys that The Killers know. They’re our friends that we’ve acquired over the years”.

Brandon’s, as-yet-untitled single will debut on radio in three weeks time, followed by album ‘Flamingo’ in September.
