Madness To Play Brand New Album At Butlins 'House Of Fun Weekender'
Monday, 14 November 2011
Written by Jon Stickler
With a line-up covering all bases from the cutting-edge to the well-known and loved Madness’s House of Fun Weekender, Butlins Minehead is already challenging to be one of the live music highlights of 2011. Things are about to get even better though as Madness announce that they will be showcasing their brand new, as yet untitled, tenth studio album, in all its glory during one of their two scheduled sets over the weekend!
Currently riding a purple patch of creativity that saw their previous album ‘The Liberty of Norton Folgate’ gaining critical praise and widespread public acclaim, the band are still in the studio working on the next eagerly-anticipated album which isn’t due for release for some time. But, as with ‘The Liberty of Norton Folgate’ which the band performed at legendary shows at the Hackney Empire a full year before its release, Madness will be giving their brand new album tracks an early airing especially for the House of Fun Weekender audience.
