Cold Specks, otherwise known as Al Spx, has announced a UK tour for February 2012.
Hailing from Etobicoke, Canada, Cold Specks now lives in London. Steeped in the musical roots of the Deep South, Cold Specks describes her sound as 'Doom Soul', citing the Lomax Field Recordings and James Carr as influences, along with Bill Callahan and Tom Waits.
Cold Specks, with a voice that evokes the ‘spirit feel’ of Mahalia Jackson and the visceral tones of Sister Rosetta Tharpe, will embark on a UK tour in late-February 2012. Kicking-off at Glasgow's King Tuts Wah Wah Hut on 23rd February, Cold Specks will visit small venues in Liverpool, Manchester, Oxford, London and Bristol.

Feb 24th - Leaf Tea Shop & Bar, Liverpool
Feb 25th - Manchester Deaf Institute, Manchester
Feb 27th - Jericho Tavern, Oxford
Feb 28th - Bush Hall, London
