In July, Frank Ocean will touch down for his first UK show in 18 months. 

The one-time OFWGKTA sideman – last seen on these shores at XOYO in November 2011 – has announced a date at London’s Brixton Academy on July 9. The show will, of course, be Ocean’s first UK show since the release of his wildly successful channel ORANGE LP. Tickets go on sale on April 5 at 9am – moving quickly is advised.

Ocean, along with Laetita Sadier and Erykah Badu, makes a guest appearance on Tyler, The Creator’s new LP Wolf. A possible outtake from the channel ORANGE sessions, titled ‘Eyes Like Sky’, also did the rounds in recent weeks.

Update: A second show has just been added on July 12. Tickets are on sale now – fly, my pretties!
