Remember way back in August? Millennium Square, Leeds? Where this happened. We managed to hold on to setlists and Jay’s sticks but honestly they are cluttering the place up a bit so you, yes YOU, can be in with a chance to win ‘em and have them cluttering up your gaff instead.

Went back to @tveyenyc, the scene of one of our first shows on US soil to film an episode of #livefrommyden with @artistsden. First look ahead of full episode dropping this Friday 6th Dec on @variety.

Australia, China, South Korea, and Japan. What a way to end the year. It’s been a hell of a trip. Every show has been, at worst, absolutely brilliant and at best? THE BEST SHOW WE HAVE EVER PLAYED. No duds amongst em, not a single clanger. Australia seems like a lifetime ago now... funny how time moves when you’re on tour, but we absolutely relished that undeniable carefree energy from each and every Aussie audience we got to soak up. We can’t wait to return. China has become my new personal favorite place in the world. The architecture, the way the rough n’ ready clashes with traditional beauty at each corner you turn, the food, and most of all - the people. From Guangzhou to Beijing I love your sense of humor. We cannot wait to return. The people are always the key. South Korea is the future of all human civilization i reckon and again, it being our first time there, I was absolutely in awe of it all. That show was particularly wild too... so thank you Seoul for bringing the heat. Unfortunately we didn’t get a great deal of time to explore on this run but based on everything else,, we cannot wait to return. And finally, our beloved Japan. We all agreed Tokyo remains the greatest city in the world, on our 3rd trip there, still nothing like it. Osaka rocks too, obviously, and we are so glad that we got to play our last shows for a very long time to such magical audiences here in Japan. We are already planning our return. What a sick tour. We’ve been driving with the petrol light on since October I think but we’ve made it home. I think I’m a bit delirious and a lot of this probably doesn’t make sense but I’ve written it now, so you’re getting it. See you all on the other side wherever you are.

China, we’ve had a brief but unforgettable time in several parts of your massive amazing country. We cannot wait to return and see more of it and meet more of you. Thanks to everyone for making us feel so welcome and the wild energy you brought each night. We had a right laugh. XIE XIE xxx

We have made it to China! Shanghai is an absolute vibe so far. We are soaking it all up and taking it all in. Tomorrow our Chinese shows begin and we can’t wait to see you all there. What a way to end a wild year! 21 Nov Modern Sky Lab, Shanghai 22 Nov Mao Livehouse, Guangzhou 23 Nov Omnispace, Beijing And then on the Seoul, Osaka and finally Tokyo

@roughtrade know 🖤 To celebrate Where’s My Utopia? crashing their top 10 we headed into @nave_studios and recorded the “Yard Act Live at The Nave doing covers that they have done on tour over the last two years (no one knows why the chose these songs to cover they just did. Except the Eddy Current Suppression Ring cover which was because they were in Australia and they wanted to ingratiate themselves to the locals). EP” exclusively available via Rough Trade, limited to 1000. Link in bio obviously. We did also do a batch of spray painted sleeves for Where’s My Utopia? - limited to 100 YA x

Australia. You were beyond compare. It’s a long way to go to play our daft songs and prat about but you made it more than worth it. We shall return. YA x 🎥 @bendornanwilson

We’ve watched @liveatleedsfest grow from a humble inner city do into a fully fledged outdoor staple of the UK festival circuit. Having all previously played it in former bands, we’re excited to finally come together (like voltron) as Yard Act to play it once more. Tickets on sale now
