PURSON announce UK headline tour

Festival Crowd Header

Title Case Uk Headline Shows Confirmed for November 2016, with Special London Date to Follow…

Festival appearances in Norwich & Ebbw Vale set for October / November 

“Desire’s Magic Theatre really is a slippery rabbit hole of a trip, a misfit alternative to Florence Welch’s mainstream oddness” – Mojo 

“Prepare to lose your mind in the best way possible.” –Classic Rock

“Turn on, tune in and become a Purson person.” – Kerrang!

“A truly magnificent and beautifully written album.” – Louder Than War

 

Following popular performances at this year’s Ramblin’ Man & Cambridge Rock festivals, British psych gypsies Purson can now reveal a run of headline shows for November 2016, plus bill-topping appearances at the Norwich Sound + Vision Festival in October (a 60-plus band event including Let’s Eat Grandma, Black Foxxes & Bad Breeding), and the Brain Freeze Festival in Ebbw Vale, South Wales, the following month.

Meanwhile, the band will attend tomorrow’s prestigious Progressive Music Awards, held at the Underglobe in London, both to perform and as nominees for the coveted ‘Album of the Year’ accolade. This nomination comes in admiration of their latest LP, ‘Desire’s Magic Theatre’, released earlier this year via Spinefarm Records.
