In the UK, the band will be supported by a variety of great acts.

In London on the 3rd of June, they will be joined by Dream Wife, an indie/punk/pop-rock three-piece from Brighton. The trio posted on their official Instagram their excitement. Along with their kind words in the post below, they captioned it saying that they are “So excited & honoured” and posted a photo of them, saying the “pic is us in Bella’s uni bedroom probably listening to Le Tigre around the time we started Dream Wife.” They cite Le Tigre, and more specifically, lead singer Kathleen Hanna, as a clear influence.

For both the Manchester and the Glasgow show, the band will be joined by Problem Patterns.

Problem Patterns are a DIY feminist queer-punk band, hailing from Belfast, Northern Ireland. They posted on Instagram, as seen below, saying “This is not a drill. We’re opening for the legendary @letigreworld this June at BOTH their Manchester and Glasgow dates! Words can’t express our excitement and gratitude. We all already bought tickets and it’s a dream come true that we get to play on these shows instead. Tickets are on sale now! These are our biggest shows to date and it would mean the world to see some familiar faces!”

Kathleen Hanna herself once said that she loves the band Problem Patterns “because they make weird music for right now that sounds like no one else and I am addicted.”

Other acts supporting them across the rest of their tour include Shamir, Morgan and the Organ Donors, Claud, Big Joanie, MAN ON MAN, Chicks on Speed, Pom Pom Squad, Who is She?, Erin Markey, cumgirl8, Morgan Bassichis & HYD.

Following the break up of riot girl-band Bikini Kill in 1998, lead singer Kathleen Hanna formed Le Tigre with Johanna Fateman and Sadie Benning. Benning shortly left in 2000 and was replaced by JD Samson. Their website says they “formed as an obstinately hopeful, even joyous, post-riot grrrl project in New York City in 1999—when Rudy Giuliani was mayor and regressive hipster irony (à la VICE Magazine) ruled.”

They first signed to Mr. Lady Records, an independent San Francisco lesbian-feminist record label. The band have released three albums in their 25-year run; self-titled album Le Tigre in 1999, Feminist Sweepstakes in 2000, and This Island in 2004. The band last played at This Aint No Picnic festival last year, after having a 17-year long break from live shows.

Tickets for the shows can be found on the bands offical website here.
