INDIE rockers Scars on 45 have announced a massive US tour.

The band, fronted by Heckmondwike singer Danny Bemrose, have spent a large part of 2011 in the States growing a fanbase.

Bemrose, a former Huddersfield Town trainee, is home for Christmas as the band are headlining Leeds’ Cockpit tonight with fellow West Yorkshire rockers The Mexanines.

The American tour begins at the end of January in San Francisco.
