In a video posted to the band's social media streams, members Black Francis, Dave Lovering and Joey Santiago are seen in a studio along with stand-in bassist Paz Lenchantin. The video is captioned: "Pixies coming 2016."

Lenchantin's involvement would seem to rule out a return for original bassist Kim Deal, although Pixies have repeatedly stated the door remains open for her. The band also have a number of tour dates lined up for 2016, and have been drip feeding additional dates over recent weeks. Watch the video - here.
