Jamie T has shared a video for Tescoland directed by Tobias-Ross Southall.
A collection of footage from his recent UK and Ireland tour, it presents the track which was recorded in Detroit and London. “Funnily, when I write abroad it has the effect of making me more Anglophile musically,” he says of it. “When you step out of your environment you become more aware of your own identity.”
Tescoland is from Jamie’s Trick LP – we’re big fans of the record, one ‘full of authenticity, depth and cleverness‘:
“If anything like that was occupying space in his mind however, Treays has done well to disguise it; ‘Trick’ has its share of arena-size tunes designed to emote for those even on Row Z.”
Jamie T will complete his UK tour a little later than originally planned after a bout of ‘flu put paid to a few gigs last month; he’ll play the O2 Academy in Bournemouth on November 15th, London’s O2 Brixton Academy on the 16th and finally the Liverpool Olympia on the 17th.
