Britains best loved band Two Door Cinema Club have bagged the top slot, headling the widely anticipated tour. Since releasing their debut album 'Tourist History' in March 2010, the band have quickly become one of the leading acts in the music industry, selling out tours everywhere from the UK to Austrailia. The band are more than worthy of the headline title after earning a devoted word-of-mouth live following and reciving huge critical acclaim.
Two Door Cinema Club say: "It feels great to be headlining the NME Tour and be amongst what feels like a great line-up as well. We had a taste of the tour when we did the local support slots when the Tour came to Ireland with the Maccabees when we were pretty much just starting out as a band. We feel a real sense of achievement to have made it this far and be one among the incredible list of headliners on the NME Awards Tour."
