After a small string of dates across the UK, Patrick Wolf has now announced a full scale UK tour. But, far from the sort to do things by the book, Patrick has taken this opportunity to maybe interest you in a special product he has going.
Anyone buying tickets for the forthcoming jaunt from Ticketmaster will have the chance to snap up a pre-order of his forthcoming record, The Bachelor, for the discounted price of £6.99 (CD) / £4.99 (digital).
The dates Patrick will be playing across the UK are as follows:
May
15 Northampton Roadmender
16 Brighton The Great Escape Festival
18 Portsmouth Wedgewood Rooms
19 Oxford O2 Academy
20 Leeds Cockpit
22 Liverpool Alma De Cuba (Sound of City Fest)
23 Bristol Thekla (Dot To Dot Festival)
24 Nottingham Rescue Rooms (Dot To Dot Festival)
25 Birmingham O2 Academy
27 Norwich Waterfront
28 Sheffield Leadmill
29 Glasgow Classic Grand
31 Manchester Ritz
June
1 London Electric Ballroom
These date are preceded by two shows in Russia, at St Peterberg's A2 Club on April 24 and Moscow's Avant Festival 2009 on April 25.
Also ahead of the tour date Patrick will be celebrating Record Store Day this Saturday (April 18) by performing at Pure Groove record shop in Farringdon, London. Pure Groove shall also be exclusively stocking the limited run 7" of the forthcoming single from Patrick, "Vulture". But - yet again - whether able to make the intimate gig or not, any investors in Wolf's record will be able to get their hands on material first with an exclusive opportunity to order a copy before the date of general sale. You can still check out the video for the raunchy new single here.
Patrick will also be performing a special one-off acoustic gig in New York on May 6 at Le Poisson Rouge ahead of The Bachelor's release Stateside on June 2. This will provide a unique experience to witness many of Wolf's electronic compositions in a stripped down format.
Talking about his performance in the US, Patrick said: " I am excited to be going back to America, to play songs from my new album. And to show New York how it all started by going there on my own with only a case full of instruments for company".
