Nice to see that Jesse Malin will return to the UK for a May tour and at the same time releases a new single, ‘Turn Up The Mains’ from his forthcoming new album New York Before The War which itself, is due on 30th March via One Little Indian records. Our review is here.

Talking about the single, Jesse describes the song as "a 'f*ck you' anthem to blow away all the things we are hit with on a daily basis to make room for something better. Sometimes celebrations can be fuelled by anger and anxiety."

17th GLASGOW King Tuts
18th NEWCASTLE The Cluny
