GIGS & TOURS
Rick Astley and Blossoms have teamed up to play two Smiths tribute shows next month. I mean, of course they have. They’ll play the Albert Hall in Manchester on 8 Oct and The Forum in London on 9 Oct. Tickets go on sale on Friday.
Clairo will tour the UK and Ireland in January next year, finishing up with a show at Brixton Academy in London on 23 Jan. For the dates, she has partnered with SafeTour and Calling All Crows to provide a safe and harassment free concert experience. “Now that shows are starting to come back into our everyday lives, it’s important to prioritise everyone’s experience to the fullest”, she says. “Everyone deserves a resource and everyone deserves to enjoy the show in peace. I want the audience to know that there is someone who will listen and believe them at every show”.
