On the back of the recent release of sophomore album Waking Up Is Hard To Do through Full Psycho Records, cult lo-fi alt-rockers Giant Drag have announced they will head to the UK in September 2013 for their farewell tour.
Front woman Annie Hardy says "I want to engage people once again and make the rest of the world care as well. Basically the last couple years of my life were pure hell and I spent it (and my "success" period of GD) a slave to prescription drugs, only to go to rehab last October to get clean. Charlotte Froom and Tennesse Thomas from The Like will be helping me to reform GD for a select few shows to promote the record and say goodbye to the band properly so I can concentrate on my new project Annie Hardy and the Psychos as well as my pet project PnP who will also be finishing up recording EPs with Joe Cardamone of The Icarus Line."
The album is available to stream in full or buy from Bandcamp now.
