Ryan Adams confirms UK tour for September
American singer-songwriter Ryan Adams is headed for the UK this autumn for a run of seven dates.
Today Ryan Adams celebrates the release of his 15th studio album Prisoner with the announcement of a UK tour which will see him playing seven venues across the country including London’s iconic Royal Albert Hall.
Ryan made a pit stop to London recently and played not one but two smashing surprise pop up shows at Soup Kitchen in Manchester and Treadwells Bookshop in London, plus a show at Rough Trade East. This was a rare chance for fans to see him unplugged and close up, and get to hear the new material live for the firs time in the UK. Now they can see the full Ryan electric experience with his band on this upcoming run of shows.
Prisoner is Ryan Adams’ first full-length album of original material since his self-titled, GRAMMY nominated release in 2014. It is shaping up to be one of his most celebrated to date, with Rolling Stone calling it “personal and urgent… close to the magnum opus of his dreams.”
The newly announced tour dates are:
14 September – O2 Apollo, Manchester
15 September – Usher Hall, Edinburgh
17 September – Gateshead, Sage
18 September – O2 Academy, Leeds
22 September – Royal Albert Hall, London
Tickets will go on sale at 10:00 on Friday 24 February via Ticketmaster.co.uk.
