The Vaccines have announced their first US tour, which they'll embark on with none other than Sheffield's finest - The Arctic Monkeys.

The two acts will kick off with a Washington show on May 17, but fear not - they're both Punchestown bound this Summer too. See below for a snippet of the Monkeys' 2006 Oxegen performace to get you in the festival mood.
