Indie-kids Athlete return with their exceptional new album 'Tourist', following on from the Mercury Music Prize nominated 'Vehicles & Animals'. This album is a significant step forward for the band, exploring new epic rock territory as previously inhabited by Coldplay & recently Keane, & includes the feel-good anthem 'Half Light' & hit single 'Wires'. Having received an outstanding response across press, TV & radio, those with any sense would place bets on Athlete being one of the biggest bands of 2005. Parlophone.

Athlete, the South London four piece comprised of childhood friends, return from the massive success of Vehicles & Animals with another album of catchy well-written indie-pop tunes on Tourist. This brand-new collection of Britpop-scented good-natured songs includes the brilliant single, 'Wires'.
