James Blake Announces UK & European Touring Plans

James Blake has announced plans to embark upon a full UK tour in the second half of this year.

Having already completed a brief string of shows, taking in London, Manchester and Glasgow last week, the singer-songwriter is now set to return to the live circuit for a lengthier run this September.

The tour will take place in support of the producer’s brand new sophomore album, ‘Overgrown’, which was released last week, and follows on from his mark-making eponymous debut.

This time around, Blake will be visiting six cities around the UK, culminating at London’s Shepherds Bush Empire; a far cry from his previous show in the capital, which took place in the more intimate confines of Heaven.

He’ll then be travelling to mainland Europe throughout October to perform an additional seven shows, as follows.
