The Strypes are pleased to announce the details of their upcoming ‘Flat Out’ UK regional tour this spring 2015. The tour will herald the return of The Strypes to live touring across the UK.



Formed by four friends in Cavan, Ireland inspired by artists such as Dr. Feelgood, Chuck Berry, Bo Diddley and the early Rolling Stones, The Strypes have been gigging around the pubs, clubs and festivals of Ireland, England and Europe since June 2011 playing a no nonsense set of "speed blues", mixing reworkings of rhythm and blues classics with their originals. In April 2012 they released a 4-track EP, "Young, Gifted & Blue" which hit no. 1 on the iTunes Blues Chart and ignited the interest of record companies. The band also scored a minor radio hit in Ireland with their version of Bo Diddley's "You Can't Judge A Book By The Cover". Elton John, Jeff Beck, Paul Weller and Dave Grohl are all known fans of the band.



The band signed a record deal with Mercury Records (which has since become known as Virgin EMI) in December 2012 and are currently working on their debut album. Two singles are available on Virgin EMI Records: "Blue Collar Jane" and "Hometown Girls"
