After four long years off the music scene the lads and lassies from beloved Scottish pop band Belle and Sebastian are back and they have a lot going on. Firstly, the band has made “Write About Love”, the lead single from their forthcoming album Belle and Sebastian Write About Love, available for free download for a limited time today. Cop it via this widget (in exchange for your email address):
Secondly, the band has produced a lively half-hour variety show featuring a chat, skits, performances of two new songs and a fan Q&A. Thirdly, the band will kick off a North American tour in New York later this month. Belle and Sebastian Write About Love comes out on Oct. 12 in the United States via Matador Records (a day earlier in the UK). Check out the variety show and tour dates after the jump.
