Singer JS Clayden said: "We've missed touring and we've missed the rabid UK fans. Our birthdays are the perfect excuse for a tour, and a tour is a perfect excuse to record some new material. It's great to give something back to the fans for their continued loyalty, and what better way than new tunes for free?"
