Ghostpoet Announces UK Tour, Free Download

Ghostpoet has announced a tour of the UK, to start in Coventry, finishing up in Suffolk, and via Liverpool, Sheffield, London.

Two years after the release of his Mercury nominated debut, ‘Peanut Butter Blues And Melancholy Jam’, the tour will celebrate the new album, ‘Some Say I So I Say Light’, which will be released in the UK on the 6th May through PIAS.

In addition to the tour announcement, there’s also a teaser track, ‘MSI MUSMID’, which is apparently described as being ‘based on a dream I had where dimsum and noodles were life-long friends who kept squabbling all the time…I try in vain to make sense of it all.” As do we all. You can download it here to see if you can work out if the foodstuffs are ever going to get along: https://soundcloud.com/ghostpoet/ghostpoet-msi-musmid-after. Obaro Ejimiwe had originally promised to release the track as a free download if 1000 fans ‘repost’ the song on Soundcloud, despite not quite being there, he’s giving it away now anyway.
