Willy Mason adds new London show this week

| On 26, Mar 2012

Willy Mason makes his long-anticipated live return in the UK this week with two sold-out shows at the Hoxton Bar & Kitchen tonight (26th) & tomorrow night (27th).

To cope with the demand Mason has this morning announced a third London show at The Colonel Fawcett, NW1, on Thursday night from 7.30pm. At this show Willy will be performing three short acoustic sets consisting of songs from previous albums ‘Where The Humans Eat’ and ‘If The Ocean Gets Rough’ alongside material from his upcoming third record, due for release later this year.

Earlier this month Willy Mason announced his return with the release of ‘Restless Fugitive’, the first track (and free download) to be taken from his forthcoming third studio album (his first for five years).

Willy’s as-yet-untitled album was recorded over the course of 2011 in south London with producer Dan Carey (MIA, Hot Chip, Franz Ferdinand) and will to be released later this year.

“The album itself is about growing up and trying to find one’s place” Mason says. “I think of this record as the third and final chapter to a particular narrative that started with ‘Where the Humans Eat'”.

Mason is also confirmed to support Ben Howard on his huge UK November headline tour (including two dates at London’s Brixton Academy).
