The Last Shadow Puppets Plot First Full-On Tour

The Last Shadow Puppets have mapped out their first worldwide tour, running from a UK leg in mid-August through a pair of stateside dates on October 30 and November 3 in New York and Los Angeles. Sporadic European shows will also happen throughout the fall.

The band's two Puppet masters, Alex Turner (Arctic Monkeys) and Miles Kane (The Rascals), won't be bringing a string section on tour, but they have tapped James Ford of Simian Mobile Disco. While he produced the Puppets' debut, The Age of the Understatement, Ford will play drums on the trek.
