BIG BIG TRAIN ANNOUNCE ‘THE LIKES OF US’ TOUR
8th February 2024Big Big Train is delighted to announce 12 shows to take place in September and October 2024 in the UK, Germany, the Netherlands, Denmark, and Norway.
At these performances the seven piece band will be promoting their forthcoming The Likes Of Us album, their first for the InsideOut label, which will be released on 1st March 2024. Listen to the latest single ‘Miramare’ and pre-order here: https://bigbigtrain.lnk.to/TheLikesOfUs
Lead vocalist Alberto Bravin says: “We’re really looking forward to getting back on the road this autumn around the UK and Europe. Following the success of last year’s The Journey Continues tour, we can’t wait to do it all again. On this tour in autumn, we will be playing a significant amount of The Likes Of Us as well as some Big Big Train classics and a few surprises.”
Drummer Nick D’Virgilio adds: “Last year’s Big Big Train shows were so much fun. We made some changes to the setlist every night. It was very challenging but it kept things fresh for both us and the audience, so we’re going to take a similar approach on this tour to make every show genuinely unique.”
Bassist Gregory Spawton continues: “For this tour, we’ve decided to return to some of our favorite venues. But we were also keen to return to Wales for the first time since 2019 and get back to the northeast and northwest of England as well as visit some parts of the country where Big Big Train hasn’t played before. While some fans travel vast distances to see us live, we recognize that others aren’t able to do so, and therefore we’re trying to bring the show to them.”
Guitarist Rikard Sjöblom concludes: “In an ideal world, we would play everywhere! Scheduling is always challenging and so while we couldn’t organise a Swedish show this time around, I’m delighted that we will be performing in Oslo and Copenhagen again for my fellow Scandinavians. And I’m particularly looking forward to our weekend at the Boerderij where we plan to play two very different shows.”
