Billy Bragg Announces Winter UK Tour Dates

Musician and political-activist Billy Bragg and his band will tour the UK in November and December, including a show at London's Royal Festival Hall. This is in addition to the short run of June dates already announced.


Billy’s first new studio album in five years, 'Tooth And Nail', is released by Cooking Vinyl on March 18th. The video for latest single 'No One Knows Nothing Anymore' is available to watch below.



Drawing on personal rather than political themes, 'Tooth & Nail' was recorded over a whirlwind five-day session with Grammy Award winning producer Joe Henry (whose production credits include Solomon Burke, Aimee Mann, Elvis Costello and Hugh Laurie) in his South Pasadena basement studio. The results are, according to Billy, a return to the rootsy sound of 1998’s Mermaid Avenue sessions he recorded with Wilco - drawing on soul, country and folk music influences to explore the ups and downs of relationships that have stood the test of time.

In his own words: “In 2011, I took a long, hard look at who I am and what I do. This album is the result.”
