Polly And The Billets Doux are heading out on their first tour of 2011 to coincide with the re-release of their single 'Follow My Feet' next month. Following sold-out shows on their last tour and a long string of festival appearances in 2010, this year looks set to be the band's biggest yet.
2009 saw Polly And The Billets Doux release debut album 'Fiction, Half-Truths and Downright Lies' and chart in the top twenty of Radio 1's Indie Chart. The band were championed by Radio 2 DJs Terry Wogan and Bob Harris as well as gaining BBC 6Music support from the lovely Cerys Matthews. Last year saw three UK tours, a season of festivals including Glastonbury, Big Chill and Loopallu, ongoing support from BBC Introducing and a public declaration of love from Never Mind The Buzzcocks comedian Phil Jupitus. Whatever next?

18 NEWCASTLE Cumberland Arms (www.thecumberlandarms.co.uk)
