Mike Skinner has unleashed more new Streets material after restarting the band for a Greatest Hits tour late last year.

That tour will take place throughout Europe in April, but while much of it is likely to focus on the modern classic debut Original Pirate Material, Skinner has a decent selection of new music to consider thanks to Burn Bridges, Sometimes I Hate My Friends More Than My Enemies, and this latest cut If You Ever Need To Talk I’m Here




“I’ve missed tour buses very much, which is the least of the reasons why I have decided to tour The Streets again,” Skinner said of the tour. “The other thing I’ve missed is trying to think up what I’m going to say in the gap between the songs.”

“When you DJ they tell you that you don’t need a tour bus and you don’t need to think up things to say between the songs. But seriously, it’s been long enough. With my Tonga parties, the new rap and grime MC’s I have been producing and the DJing, I have been living with music since making The Streets for nearly as long as I made The Streets.”

“I’m not the guy smoking in the car anymore though, I have become the guy in the club, so I hope I will be excused for putting on after parties in nightclubs after every show.”
