Weezer announce London gig

Weezer have announced details of a show at London’s Brixton Academy in July, the same month as they play a number of festivals around the UK.

The full list of shows are as follows:

JULY
6th London Brixton Academy
8th Punchestown Oxygen Festival
9th Knebworth Sonisphere Festival
10th Kinross Tin the Park

The band previously played the UK last August when they appeared on the main stage of the Reading / Leeds Festival.

After signing to Epitaph Records in the 2010 Weezer released their 8th studio album, Hurley, in September of that year.

The album was produced by front man Rivers Cuomo and Shawn Everett (Raditude, Phantom Planet, Ozomatli). Known for their quirky album artwork the cover of Hurley featured a simple, yet astonishing close-up of actor Jorge Garcia from the acclaimed Lost TV series.
