Scottish indie band Vistas have announced that their 2021 tour, scheduled for March, has been postponed until September and December later this year. The group, who have performed at festivals such as the Reading and Leeds Festivals and Twisterella, were due to play a series of dates across the UK and Ireland.
In an Instagram post, the band wrote: “Hey everyone. Hope you’re all keeping safe and well. Unfortunately we have to postpone our March tour dates. These shows will now take place in September/December 2021. We can’t wait to play our debut album live for you all, we promise to make it worth your wait. There might even be some new songs in there too!”
The band were originally scheduled to tour in November and December 2020, but these gigs were also postponed. The group are set to play dates in Bristol, Manchester, London, Birmingham, Leeds, Newcastle and Glasgow. The dates of their Irish leg of the tour are yet to be announced.
Fans were quick to voice their support for the band.

The Edinburgh-based band, made up of vocalist Prentice Robertson, guitarist Dylan Rush and bassist Jamie Law, originally formed whilst at school. Their debut album, Everything Changes in the End, hit number 21 on the UK Albums Chart, and was nominated for the 2020 SAY Award. Gigwise writer Grace Almond describes the band as “ …part of a new generation of indie-pop bands carving out a solid place in the guitar scene for fans of happier, more pop-focused music.”
