Jake Bugg performing at the Brixton Academy, London (Alberto Pezzali for Live4ever)
Jake Bugg will undertake more UK acoustic shows next year.
Bugg is due to tour the UK during November after the release of his new album Hearts That Strain, and has now arranged more UK and Ireland gigs which start at Whelans in Dublin on February 15th 2018.
The LP was recorded in Nashville with US musicians Gene Chrisman and Bobby Wood. “They’re old guys but they’re amazing,” Bugg said of the pair.
“It was ten to five and then that’s it. They’d pack up and we’d done two or three tunes. It was a mad vibe being from England and meeting these absolute legends and then cutting some tracks with them.”
