MANCHESTER-based punk rockers Goldblade return to The Horn in St Albans next week for the first time since 2009.

The show next Friday, June 17, is part of their current UK tour which has followed a successful trip to the US.

Support comes from local favourites The Scratch who add Goldblade to other recent notable supports at the Horn which include Flashguns and The Heartbreaks. The Scratch are in the process of completing their fourth studio EP and will be performing a set of new material prior to their summer festival dates.

Also in support are St Albans rockers Kalazar, who have just recorded their debut EP at the same studio as Enter Shikari while the opening act is Ministers Dead, a punk rock’n’roll band from Hitchin.
