Paul Weller will play a ‘secret’ gig next weekend for those with wristbands for the Great Escape metropolitan festival in Brighton.
“I like the fact that The Great Escape showcases new and fresh music across all venues in Brighton as a festival,” Weller says. “It’s always good to perform in smaller venues and I’m looking forward to playing some new tracks.”
The show is due on May 16th and will be filmed by Amazon Prime and made available exclusively to subscribers of the service through Prime Instant Video. Weller is set to play tracks from his new album ‘Saturns Pattern‘, out on May 18th.
“It’s just bonkers in places but it’s really melodic, there’s great tunes on there,” he’s previously told NME. “It’s a little bit of a leap into the unknown, really. I don’t know where it will take me, I have no idea. I wouldn’t say it’s dance because I wouldn’t do a dance record as such, but it’s got a lot of movement to it. It’s gone past my expectations, in a way.”
