Ghostpoet will join The Horrors in supporting Alt-J during the band’s winter UK tour which includes several arena shows during December.
Ghostpoet has landed a 2015 Mercury Prize nomination for his third LP ‘Shedding Skin‘, though Alt-J surprisingly missed out on a nomination themselves after being strongly tipped to get a nod thanks to last year’s ‘This Is All Yours‘, after the band sauntered home in 2012 with their debut ‘An Awesome Wave‘. This year’s winner will be announced at a ceremony on November 20th.
The tour begins for Alt-J at Manchester Central on November 29th, and then visits arenas in cities such as Cardiff, Leeds and Glasgow. The final date is due up at Nottingham Arena on December 8th.
