Glasvegas are set to make their live return in Scotland in January.

The band, who have been recording their second album in Los Angeles this year, will play eight gigs in their home country and have promised to play a full UK tour in spring.

“We love playing live,” they said. “We love Scotland. We wanted to discover more of our own country doing what we are passionate about. Our new songs will be heard live first in our home country and we’re very proud to be able to do that.”

The band’s second album, the follow-up to their 2009 self-titled debut, will be out some time soon after the Scottish shows.
