The Killers have revealed details of a tiny UK show in Leeds next month.
The band, who debuted new single 'Runaways' last week, will headline the Leeds Academy on August 17. Tickets go on sale this Friday (July 20) at 9am.
Brandon Flowers and co. will be in Yorkshire ahead of their headline slot at the V Festival on August 18-19th.
New album 'Battle Born' follows later in the year and will be the Las Vegas band's fourth album, their first since 'Day & Night' in 2008.
Speaking to Rolling Stone about the album title, lead singer Brandon Flowers said: "In a sense, all Americans are battle born. Our ancestors came here for something better." Drummer Ronnie Vanucci added: "It's living up to its title. This is our difficult fourth record."
Song titles confirmed for the album, due out before the end of 2012, include: 'Heart Of A Girl', 'Flesh And Bone', 'Carry Me Home' and 'Runaways'.
The Killers headline this year's V Festival alongside The Stone Roses, appearing in Stafford and Chelmsford on August 18-19.
