Richard Ashcroft released his new album These People on Friday and is currently Number 2 on the Official album midweek chart, trailing the No.1 position by just 100 copies, cementing the brilliant reception for the return of one of the U.K.’s most cherished and revered voices.
Following ecstatically received shows at London’s Roundhouse and Manchester’s Albert Hall, which sold out in just 25 minutes, Richard Ashcroft has announced two new headline shows in December. These will see him taking the stage at Liverpool Echo Arena on December 7th and the 20 thousand capacity The 02, London on December 9th. Tickets go on sale this Friday at 9am from the venues and Ticketmaster.
Meanwhile, Richard stopped by Chris Evans’ show on B.B.C. Radio 2 on Friday where he performed a spirited four song acoustic set, including new single Hold On and a goose bump-inducing cover of Prince’s Little Red Corvette.
Tickets are available to purchase from Friday 27th May.
