Finland is the latest destination to the band's 2013 European Tour, where Blur are set to play in Finland's neighboring country- Norway's Oya Festival - amongst other countries in Europe. Exciting dates in other areas such as Latin America and Japan have been confirmed - check out a full list of Blur gigs in the coming year in our tour page.

The news was confirmed on Provinssirock’s facebook page a few hours ago.

The last time Blur played in Finland was in 1999, where they performed a spectacular and lively show in front of a large audience. The band did, however, play in Finland's neighbors - Denmark and Sweden - just before their London Olympics Closing Ceremony concert in August 2012.

2013 is going to be an extremely important year for Blur. They may or may not make a new album, and there's no news on whether there will be follow up songs from their recent single 'Under the Westway'.

But one thing is for sure- 2013 is when the band will play numerous festivals and gigs all around the world. Perhaps - just perhaps - there will be some new material out there soon.

Stay tuned for more updates on the Blur 2013 tours.
