Venice, the band which includes vocalists Kipp, Mark and Pat Lennon, who made a huge contribution to the overall sound of The Wall Live tour, have now - with time to devote to their own music again - announced a tour of the Netherlands and a show in the French capital, to perform (amongst other things) their very enjoyable new double album. "What Summer Brings" isn't typical of what you heard during the Roger Waters tour, musically, but still features their great voices and harmonisation, along with some cracking tunes.

A preview of the album can be heard at their official webpage, www.venicecentral.com, which also has their upcoming Netherlands dates at the end of March and start of April. These are bookended by some shows in California on various dates.

Also, Venice have booked their first ever show in Paris, France, on April 5th, at the Divan Du Monde, which is close to Saint Germain Des Pres and Notre Dame. More details and how to arrange a reduced rate at a local hotel at their website. Here's a quick promo video the guys made to announce this show and the Dutch theatre tour:
