The Pretty Reckless have announced that they will be coming to the UK in January.

The band have just released their third album Who You Selling For and are currently embarking on a worldwide tour, playing new tracks and old favourites, stopping off in the UK for shows at Nottingham, Birmingham, London, Glasgow and Manchester.

Front-woman Taylor Momsen hasn’t made a public appearance since her cameo in the American TV show Gossip Girl back in 2012.

In a quote for NME, Momsen spoke about her past. “The producers knew I was never an actress. I started as an actress as you can’t be putting out a record when you’re three-years-old. It was a job and it paid my rent but, once I wrote an album’s worth of material that I wanted to release, it wasn’t even a question.”

Previously, the band have supported Marylin Manson and released the albums Light Me Up in 2010 and Going To Hell four years later.

The band’s third album Who You Selling For was released in October, and have released their first song ‘Take Me Down’. In an interview for Loudwire, Momsen explains what songs were easiest to write. “I think “Oh My God” kind of wrote itself quickly but it’s also something I worked on for about two years, but the core of it really came fast so I’ll say, “Oh My God.” Wait, I have a better one. It was written and recorded all in three days, “Mad Love,” and that was written right after [David] Bowie died and I was kind of really devastated by that and that was kind of my homage to him that was all written and recorded within three days.”

Tickets for the UK leg of the tour will be released on Friday 4 November at 9am. Details of dates and venues are below:
