Marcus Foster has announced that he will be playing London's Islington Assembly Hall as part of his UK tour in November.

Since the release of his critically acclaimed debut album 'Nameless Path' at the end of last year, Marcus Foster has been penning new songs and subjecting himself to a gruelling – yet not altogether unpleasant – worldwide touring schedule.

Following US September support slots with Mercury Music Prize nominated Michael Kiwanuka and Ben Howard, as part of his November UK tour, Marcus will play London’s Islington Assembly Hall on Thursday 15th November.
 
October 2012 will see the release of Marcus’s latest mini-album ‘The Last House’ – his most diverse, yet complete release to date. In his own words: “These songs we recorded in just under ten days, they are pretty raw but I feel like they have captured the energy I put into my live shows. I wanted ‘Worn Down by Time’ to sound similar to an old Otis Redding song or a bit like the way Van Morrison played with The Band on The Last Waltz. It has an old school sound to it and I can't wait to play it live with a horn section.” 

Watch 'Worn Down By Time' here:
