The best-ever Twisted Folk tour? Probably...

by Mike Diver [Edit this content] ▾ 10 comments 17:49 October 4th, 2006

This winter's Twisted Folk tour of the U-of-K looks like the very best yet, with Nina Nastasia (pictured) confirmed to play alongside both Jeffrey Lewis and William Elliott Whitmore.

I, for one, will be there. Whichever gig 'there' is.

The dates in full...

November
19 Sale Waterside Arts
21 Glasgow ABC2
22 Norwich Arts Centre
23 Bristol St George's
24 Coventry Taylor John's House
26 Cambridge Junction
27 Leicester Musician
28 London Scala
29 Brighton Komedia

Nina Nastasia's fourth studio album, On Leaving, was released last month via Fat Cat; Whitmore's latest album Song Of The Blackbird was released through Southern in the summer; and Jeffrey Lewis' City & Eastern Songs was released around this time last year. So, like, go get them. All of them.

A bizarre location compared with the others but just a few stops on the 41 away from my house. Bargain!
