This will be the first time all ten songs have been performed live on a stage.
"A 21st Century 'The Kinks Are The Village Green Preservation Society'. It's a joy from start to finish and hands down my favourite album of 2023" Louder Than War
"Irresistible melodies and eloquent lyrics. Brilliant, bold and expansive" CLASH
"A pop alchemist par excellence" Shindig!
Support: Dan O’Farrell: Described by NME's Amrik Rai as 'erudite, morose and challenging' (which he thinks was a compliment!), Dan O'Farrell has - since the dissolution of indie-Peelsters Accrington Stanley - been building an audience playing both solo and with his band (The Difference Engine), performing his songs of love, politics, Shakespeare & traffic-lights to bemused crowds all round the south coast. Lucky enough to have supported such luminaries as The Levellers, The Men They Couldn't Hang, Wreckless Eric and Robyn Hitchcock, Dan released his fourth album with the band - 'The Fish That Learned To Drown' - in January 2026.
