Formed in late 2014, IST IST is known for their smash hits, including You're Mine, Lost My Shadow, The Kiss, Black, and Wolves.
While announcing their tour, the band revealed they are currently in the studio recording their fifth album.
Their fourth record, Light A Bigger Fire, reached 25th in the UK Official Album Charts in 2024.
Speaking about what to expect from their upcoming UK Winter tour, IST IST said: 'The four shows in winter will be the biggest UK headliners we've played outside of our home city of Manchester, so it's really exciting for us to be taking the live show into bigger spaces and in front of more people.
"The European shows, especially the Netherlands, are growing and growing, so it's about time the UK dates went in the same direction.
"We're in the studio recording our fifth album as we speak.
"We'll be previewing more of the new album tracks at these shows, so there's a lot of good stuff just around the corner for us.'

Chris Brown emerges in Amsterdam as he prepares to take to the stage for his first concert since being released on £5million bail over alleged nightclub bottle attack
has been seen in Amsterdam as he prepared to take to the stage for his first concert since he was released on a £5million bail after an alleged bottle attack in a London nightclub. The R&B singer, 36, kept a low profile as he was seen crossing a street on Friday wearing a black snap cap and Nike trainers. He cut a casual display for his arrival in the Netherlands as he wore a pair of green cargo trousers and a beige hoodie. Chris has travelled to Amsterdam in preparation to kick off his tour, titled Chris Brown, on Sunday. The tour kicks off in the Dutch capital city and will move to Germany on June 11 before ending his European stint in the UK on June, 15. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new Showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Shortly after Chris was released on remand from prison last month, he posted a story to Instagram to tell his 144million followers: 'From the cage to the stage!!!', adding the word Breezybowl - the name of his tour. Chris's passport was held by lawyers and police until he needed it in an arrangement that will allow him to fulfil tour dates in Europe, the US and Canada, a court heard. The singer was arrested in Manchester last month then charged over an alleged bottle attack at a nightclub in the capital in 2023. The Go Crazy singer had flown in on a private jet hours earlier and was staying at the five-star Lowry Hotel in Salford when police swooped to arrest him. Chris was charged with causing grievous bodily harm to music producer Abe Diaw during the alleged assault at the Tape club in Mayfair in February 2023. The conditions of his bail mean that he must reside at an address in the UK and can only access his passport when he needed to travel for a tour date, Heidi Stonecliffe KC, prosecuting, said. Two-time Grammy winner Chris- who did not appear in court for the bail application hearing - is set to kick off his 20-year anniversary this week. He had planned gigs in Europe on June 8, 11 and 13 - with ten dates scheduled across Britain and Ireland from June 15, before further dates in the US. Stonecliffe told Southwark Crown Court his passport would be held by the police until his international dates, then it would be collected by a solicitor from law firm Hickman & Rose, before being returned to Chris so he can travel to the US. 'The passport is to then be lodged with a US lawyer named Mr Matthew Cayman. We have checked his details and he does exist,' Ms Stonecliffe said. 'It will be held by Mr Cayman until August. Then Mr Brown travels to Canada. It will be held by Mr Cayman during his US tour then Mr Brown returns to the UK and his passport will then be held by a solicitor. 'What we then propose is that we have a further case management hearing on October 24.' Other bail conditions include not to attend the Tape nightclub or contact his co-accused, Dallas rapper Omolulu Akinlolu, 38, the complainant or any witnesses. Before agreeing to the conditions, judge Tony Baumgartner said he needed some more information about Chris's net worth. 'The one concern I have is the defendant leaving the jurisdiction then returning to the jurisdiction,' he said. 'What I don't have is any feel for the defendant's net worth and how the security stands against that. 'It might be a lot of money to him or not a lot of money to him.' Sallie Bennett-Jenkins KC, said that during a break in proceedings she had been 'waking up a lot of people across the west coast of America' to establish Brown's net worth. Brown is claimed to have injured music producer Mr Diaw in an unprovoked attack when the singer and his entourage were at a club night called 'Dirty Martini'. The producer previously alleged Chris hit him over the head with a bottle two or three times and then punched and kicked him as he lay on the floor. Prosecutor Hannah Nicholls previously told Manchester Magistrates' Court the incident was an 'extremely serious' attack that was caught on CCTV. She said Mr Diaw was 'struck with a bottle several times' and 'punched and kicked repeatedly'. Before the latest hearing, Adele Kelly, deputy chief crown prosecutor for CPS London North, said: 'We have authorised the Metropolitan Police to charge Chris Brown with one count of grievous bodily harm, contrary to section 18 of the Offences Against the Person Act 1861. 'The alleged incident occurred in London on February 19, 2023. He will have his first court appearance on Friday, May 16 at Manchester Magistrates' Court. 'The Crown Prosecution Service reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against this defendant are active and that he has the right to a fair trial. 'It is extremely important that there should be no reporting, commentary or sharing of information online which could in any way prejudice these proceedings.' Before the charge was made, a Metropolitan Police spokesman said: 'A 36-year-old man was arrested at a hotel in Manchester shortly after 2am on Thursday, May 15 on suspicion of grievous bodily harm. 'He has been taken into custody where he remains. The arrest relates to an incident at a venue in Hanover Square on February 19, 2023. 'The investigation is being led by detectives from the Central West Area Basic Command Unit.' It was initially understood that the arrest had been made by the Metropolitan Police. But a Greater Manchester Police spokesperson clarified: 'This morning (Thursday) we arrested a 36-year-old man at a hotel in Manchester on suspicion of grievous bodily harm on behalf of the Metropolitan Police.' Chris rose to fame at a young age with his rich R&B voice and later rap, and was also known for having a relationship with fellow music star Rihanna. He released his debut album Chris Brown in 2005 and has since released a further ten studio albums and 64 singles. Some of his biggest hits have included Run It!, Yo (Excuse Me Miss) and No Air, a collaboration with Jordin Sparks. Chris will next appear in court on June 20, alongside American co-defendant, Akinlolu. A case management hearing has been set for October 24.

Beyoncé review – a hugely enjoyable concert that adds a ferocious potency to Cowboy Carter
It clearly hasn't escaped Beyoncé's notice that the meteorological omens auger ill for the first UK show of her Cowboy Carter tour. The weathermen are predicting a thunderstorm, the Tottenham Hotspur ground is noticeably lacking a roof, and she's no sooner arrived onstage than she's suggesting that the prospect of rain 'ain't gonna stop the party'. The thunderstorm never comes, but a cynic might suggest the glowering skies, and a sudden downpour – through which the singer will be required to fly on a giant neon-lit horseshoe – act as a kind of metaphor for the fortunes of the Cowboy Carter tour. It's thus far attracted the usual laudatory reviews – such is the blanket critical acclaim for everything Beyoncé does, you rather get the feeling that were she spotted using a public convenience, there would be a spate of articles claiming she'd singlehandedly redefined going to the lavatory – but it has also been attended by news reports suggesting all is not well. There is talk of sluggish ticket sales and demands for refunds from fans who shelled out full whack for seats on release, only to see them going for vastly reduced prices as the gigs drew nearer. One headline-grabbing complaint noted that tickets for her LA show were now 'cheaper than a McDonald's Minecraft meal'. Tonight, Spurs' stadium is visibly not sold out. Perhaps that has something to do with her country-inflected album of the same name. It certainly proved its point about its author's ability to master any musical style she set her mind to – it made her the first Black woman both to have a No 1 album on the US country charts and win a Grammy for best country album – but its actual sales were about half those of its predecessor, 2022's house music-themed Renaissance. Whatever you paid for your tickets, you do get an awful lot of Cowboy Carter for your money. The album's contents take up almost half the set; the big hits, when they come, arrive in truncated form, as if she feels obliged to perform them and is keen to get them out of the way: Crazy In Love, If I Were A Boy, Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It). And yet, that doesn't really matter. Events in America since Cowboy Carter's release have cast its contents in a noticeably different light: they sound less like an interesting stylistic detour and more like an act of protest, particularly given that Donald Trump recently called Beyoncé's support of Kamala Harris in the 2024 election 'illegal', making the evidence-free claim she'd received $11m to appear at a rally. For all the show's kitschy Nashville imagery – you're never far away from a pair of leather chaps, or a Stetson, a neon bar sign or a flying pink Cadillac - Beyoncé is clearly keen to frame them that way. Early on, she sings The Star Spangled Banner along to Jimi Hendrix's legendary feedback-strafed rendition of America's national anthem from the 1969 Woodstock festival, while the screens behind her flash up messages: NEVER ASK FOR SOMETHING THAT ALREADY BELONGS TO YOU; HISTORY CAN'T BE ERASED, before tearing into a ferocious version of Ya Ya. Later, her performance is interrupted by the sound of Gil Scott-Heron's The Revolution Will Not Be Televised, one of a series of interpolations that delve deep into African American musical history: Chuck Berry and Sister Rosetta Tharpe stare down from the screens; Leadbelly's Looky Looky Yonder booms ominously from the speakers. The contextualising works, adding an extra potency to a performance that's already pretty potent by default, Beyoncé's ability to sing and dance up a storm being a given. If an extended section of acoustic ballads causes the excitement level to dip a little – Protector features a cameo appearance from her seven-year-old daughter, Rumi – it's very swiftly restored. She performs Dolly Parton's Jolene as if it's a prelude to murder rather than a plea, and the songs from Renaissance – Thique, Cuff It, Alien Superstar – take on a punishing, relentless edge in their live incarnations. You don't have to buy into some of the more hysterical claims made on Beyoncé's behalf by her most ardent supporters to find the show variously moving, powerful, relevant and hugely enjoyable, to think it casts the material from her most recent album in a different light and lends it more potency in the process - or, indeed, to think that those who chose to skip on buying tickets might have missed out. Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter continues in London until 16 June
