Franz Ferdinand Launch Tour With New Lineup

(Gibson) Franz Ferdinand just kicked off their North American tour. Before they travelled to the US, the 'Take Me Out' rock act posted an image on their social media showing the band's line-up with the addition of two new members.

Guitarist Dino Bardot and keyboard player/guitarist Julian Corrie will replace founding member Nick McCarthy who parted ways with the group last summer.

Bardot previously played with indie-rock trio 1990, while Corrie released electronic music under the moniker Miaoux Miaoux. Franz Ferdinand last released an album four years ago, 2013's Right Thoughts, Right Words, Right Action. Read more here.
