Morrissey confirms three new live shows

Morrissey has confirmed three new theatre shows on his UK summer tour.

In addition to a series of previously-announced sold-out dates in June, the ex-Smiths singer will play further shows in Stoke, Middlesbrough and Leeds in July.

The concerts lead up to Morrissey's headline slot at this year's Hop Farm Festival, where he is supported on the bill by Iggy & The Stooges, Lou Reed, Patti Smith and others.

Tickets for the new shows go on sale this Friday, May 13 at 9am.

The new tour dates are as follows:

• July 5 - Stoke Victoria Hall (w/All The Young)
• July 7 - Leeds O2 Academy (w/The Heartbreaks)
• July 8 - Middlesbrough Town Hall (w/Kristeen Young)
