Teenage Fanclub’s new LP, single, and UK tour
16 October 2000

Today Scottish pop masters Teenage Fanclub release the long awaited first single I Need Direction from their forthcoming album Howdy! The single includes two non LP tracks, I Lied and a cover of the heart-wrenchingly pretty Pixies song Here Comes Your Man. You can listen to 30 second samples of each of these on the band’s site.
    Howdy! hits UK stores next Monday, three years on from the band’s 1997 album Songs From Northern Britain. There’s no North American distribution for the single or the album yet, but anyone can order direct from Amazon UK (check our link).
    The track listing for Howdy! is I Need Direction, I Can’t Find My Way Home, Accidential Life, Near You, Happiness, Dumb Dumb Dumb, The Town And The City, The Sun Shines From You, Straight & Narrow, Cul De Sac, My Uptight Life, and If I Never See You Again.
