Busted have announced they are going back on tour in 2017, including a gig in Kent.

The Essex trio, who originally shot to fame in the early 2000s, excitedly revealed their Night Driver tour this morning.

It coincides with the release of Night Driver - the band's first album in 12 years - which comes out next month.

Among the dates is the Leas Cliff Hall in Folkestone which will be the band's sixth date on February 7.

Matt Willis led the announcement saying: "We're very very very very excited to announce we're going back out on tour on the Night Driver tour 2017.

"We're coming to some of the most intimate venues we've ever played and wanted to get up close to you and spread Night Driver love and thought these places would be an epic place to start.

"We'll see you on the road."

The band has promised the set will include a mix of their old songs mixed in with new releases from the Night Driver album which launches on November 11.

The band went on a reunion tour earlier this year but this will be their first album tour in more than a decade.

Tickets go on sale on Friday. For more visit the Busted website.
