Leeds-based band English Teacher have unveiled the release details of their debut album, which will be titled ‘This Could Be Texas.’ The album will be released on the 12th of April through Island Records. The group has also released a new single titled ‘Albert Road,’ which is the fourth release from the band following ‘Mastermind Specialism,’ ‘Nearly Daffodils,’ and ‘The World’s Biggest Paving Slab.’
The vocalist of the band, Lily Fontaine, expressed her thoughts on the album, saying, “I want this album to feel like you’ve gone to space and it turns out it’s almost identical to Doncaster.

The tour dates begin on the 28th of January in York at The Crescent and conclude on the 29th of May in London at Electric Brixton. It appears that the band is eager to get back on stage to perform their new album to fans after being unable to perform live during the pandemic.
