Folk outfit Bon Iver have announced two November UK live dates as part of a new European tour. Tickets for Bon Iver are onsale this Friday at 9am.
Following the release of last summer’s eponymous second album. Bon Iver have revealed that they may not release another record for a few years.
Frontman Justin Vernon revealed earlier this year that work on a follow-up had not yet begun and it could take quite a while before they head back into a studio. Vernon explained that he would ‘wait’ for songs to ‘reveal themselves’ instead of rushing and forcing his song-writing.
“I don't have any songs written yet,” he said in an interview with USA Today. “I'm guessing three years. But it could be five. It could be only one more. It just depends when the songs come about. I sort of have to wait till they reveal themselves.”
One reason behind the decision could be the fact that Vernon is working on some other projects, including some of his other musical groups such as Volcano Choir, and his on-going collaboration with Alicia Keys. “I have a big idea to do an American songbook of the greatest women singers,” he told the paper. “There are so many: Casey (Dienel) from White Hinterland, Bonnie Raitt, Alicia.”
Bon Iver will perform in the UK this November having confirmed shows in Glasgow and Belfast.
