Texan country-billy saviour DALE WATSON crosses the pond for a series of European dates next month.
The silver-haired Austinite has been working hard over the past 20+ years in providing an antidote to the bland airbrushed attempt at country music that's been issuing forth out of Nashville, engaging legions of fans with raw, honest, beer-drinking, trucking and cheating songs inspired by the likes of Waylon Jennings, Johnny Cash and Merle Haggard in their outlaw country heyday.
Such sounds are captured on his recent live album, Live At The Big T Roadhouse, recorded in St Hedwig, Texas on one of the now legendary Chicken Shit Bingo Sundays.
This time around, Dale and his Lone Stars will be featuring a special guest appearance by co-vocalist Miss Celine Lee. Last time they played the 100 Club, it sold out quickly so prompt booking is advised. Full dates are....
Sun 11 Mar – Paradiso Noord, Amsterdam
Mon 12 Mar – Four Corners Music Hall, Untermeitingen
Wed 14 Mar – Schützenhaus Albisgütl, Zurich
Fri 16 Mar – The 100 Club, London
Sat 17 Mar – The Cluny, Newcastle
Sun 18 Mar – Brudenell Social Club, Leeds
Tickets are available now from Punk Rock Blues.
