Hot on the heels of the success of their debut single ‘Carry You’, X Factor boyband sensations Union J have announced their first ever UK headline tour. The band will visit towns and cities across the country and will give fans the opportunity to hear brand new material from the boys. They said:  ‘The thing we love most about music is performing and we are so excited to get out on the road for our first ever tour. Playing our album to fans will be brilliant. We are so excited and promise to put on a really special show.”
