British Sea Power @ Trinity, Bristol (Jessica Bartolini / Live4ever)
British Sea Power will continue touring this year’s Let The Dancers Inherit The Party album in October.
The band start UK tour dates at the UEA in Norwich on October 21st, and will later play shows in Northampton, Derby, York, Stockton-On-Tees and Leicester. There’s live outings in November too; a headline appearance at the Manchester People’s Concert on the 11th and another gig in Norwich on the 21st.
“It was made to a background of politicians perfecting the art of unabashed lying, of social-media echo chambers, of click-bait and electronic Tonka Toys to keep us entertained and befuddled,” guitarist Martin Noble has said of the album.
“There wasn’t a plan to create an album with any particular subject matter but we’ve kind of ended up with a case of ’think global, act local’ – an album where individuals are dealing with their domestic and personal lives against a background of uncontrollable international lunacy.”
