If you'd like to know when stellastarr* tickets become available
click here if you're a popex member or join up here (it's free), pick stellastarr* as your favourite band and say "yes" to the gig mail... Then you'll receive a mail as soon as tickets go on sale. Unless it's for The Pixies, then they sell out before I get to hear about them, DOH!



BTW, if I ever say Portsmouth is in West Sussex, that's because I've automatically inserted Wayahead content into popex without checking it - they... I am from there, I know it's in Hampshire.

My Coco

New Stellastarr* single, and dates, DO NOT MISS THEM, THEY ROCK

stellastarr* kick off the new year in fine style with the long awaited release of "My Coco". Their album has already been heralded as something of a classic debut by the likes of Time Out, NME, Observer Music Monthly and Q. "My Coco" will be the band’s third single after "Somewhere Across Forever" and "Jenny" (both NME Single Of The Week).



stellastarr* ended 2003 having made one of the most promising debut album’s of the year ( “This assured, intense record heralds the emergence of a major force” Q, "Messy seductive stuff, go lose yourself" Mojo). Their eponymous record found it’s way into the NME’s Top 50 albums of the year and was No 3 in Logo’s year end chart. "My Coco" (Produced by Tim O’Heir) is a clear stand out and long time live favourite. It demonstrates stellastarr* at their volatile yet ebullient pop best and promises to be their biggest record yet.



Following the band’s triumphant sold out appearance at the Islington Academy in November (“On this evidence, Stellastarr’s rule will be long, prosperous and brilliant” The Fly) stellastarr* will return to the UK for their biggest tour to date commencing 28th February in Sheffield. Supporton all dates comes from Las Vegas’ The Killers. Prior to this the band play the London Astoria on February 8th on a bill with the Raveonettes as part of the NME Awards Shows before heading into main land Europe with Serafin.



The single will be available on enhanced CD and 7” coloured vinyl with some exclusive B-sides and videos. CD and 7” both come with previously unavailable track ‘Underdressed’.
