Following the announcement of the ‘Songs From The Hymnal’ UK acoustic tour for 2019, Brian Fallon has today confirmed second shows in both London and Manchester due to popular demand, and revealed Craig Finn as main support across all dates.
With shows in Newcastle, Edinburgh, Manchester, London and Brighton now sold out, additional tickets for the second shows will be available for fan presale on Tuesday July 10th at 9am BST via AXS (password: prayers), and available to the public from Wednesday, July 11th at 9am BST. Note the the Cardiff show has been moved to February 25th.
Fallon says; ‘I’m very excited to be able to come back over to the UK and do my solo acoustic and piano shows. Many songs and many stories!’
SLEEPWALKERS saw Brian Fallon once again push timeless rock ‘n’ roll into the modern era, recasting British Invasion rock, first generation UK punk, and American pop and soul into a near irresistible sound he’s dubbed – with a nod and a wink towards The Who – as “Heavy R&B.” Recorded at New Orleans’ Parlor Recording Studio with producer Ted Hutt – the man behind the board for The Gaslight Anthem’s 2008 breakthrough, THE ’59 SOUND – the album was another sterling example of Fallon’s always adventurous artistry.
Known far and wide as singer/guitarist of The Gaslight Anthem, as well as such outfits as The Horrible Crowes and Molly & The Zombies, Fallon made his solo debut with 2015’s masterful PAINKILLERS. The album – which includes the hit singles, ‘A Wonderful Life’ and ‘Painkillers’ – drew widespread critical applause upon its release.
