Live Nation Entertainment & Q Magazine Present New To Q - UK Tour 2010
Q Magazine, in conjunction with Live Nation, will launch its first New To Q tour this May. The seven-date UK tour comes on the back of Q’s New To Q Sessions showcase gigs for emerging talent at London’s Tabernacle in January and features a three-band bill.

Geordie indie-rockers Detroit Social Club, the hotly-tipped Tiffany Page and London five-piece Goldhawks will tour the UK together – with the trek beginning in Manchester on 10 May and concluding in London on 18 May.
“We are delighted to announce our first New To Q tour and plan to make this an annual event,” says Q’s Editor In Chief Paul Rees. “We’re equally pleased that the bill is a varied one and made up of one of the artists we backed at the start of the year for success, Tiffany Page, as well as two other top notch bands.

“Following on from our New To Q Sessions with the likes of Ellie Goulding, Marina And The Diamonds and Midlake, I also think it re-emphasises Q’s ongoing commitment to highlighting and championing the very best new music. To tie in with the tour, from the next issue we will also be expanding the New To Q section of the magazine to cover more of the best new bands and artists each month.”

The New to Q tour will be calling at:

10 May – Manchester Sound Control

11 May – Glasgow King Tuts

12 May – O2 Academy 2 Newcastle

13 May – Leeds Cockpit

16 May – O2 Academy 2 Bristol

17 May – O2 Academy 2 Birmingham

18 May – London Relentless Garage
