Man & The Echo @ Bristol Louisiana (Jessica Bartolini / Live4ever)
Man & The Echo will join The Strypes when the Irish band embarks on a UK tour later this year.
Support will be provided on The Strypes’ Great Expectations tour – named after the lead single from their recent Spitting Image album – from October 4th in Birmingham through to the final night in London on the 12th.
Man & The Echo’s self-titled debut album quickly became one of Live4ever’s favourites of 2016 thanks to its ‘cabaret showboating’ which ‘ends up working a few minor wonders on you‘:
“Latter-day Jam, when they were soul merchants, and Arctic Monkeys are two clear touchpoints for the band. Not least because Alex Turner set free the idea that northerners can embrace their northern-ness – even more than Jarvis Cocker did.”
