A legendary singer-songwriter is coming to Glasgow on a new tour.
Richard Hawley, whose career flourished in the Britpop scene of the 1990s when he featured in Longpigs and Pulp, is visiting the city's Barrowland Ballroom this summer.
The 57-year-old will stop by the iconic East End venue on June 2, 2024.
It comes after the release of his new album In This City They Call You Love, which will be released on May 31.
Speaking about the record, Richard said: “I’ve made three albums where I had the title before I'd even begun to record, where I had an agenda. One was Truelove’s Gutter.
"Another was Standing At The Sky's Edge when I wanted to turn everything up and make the music a lot more aggressive, and then this one.
"I wanted it to be multi-coloured in a way… focusing on the voice and what voices can do together… I deliberately only played a handful of guitar solos to keep it focused on voices, the song and space…"
Richard's career spans an impressive 25 years and he has worked with the likes of Arctic Monkeys, Manic Street Preachers, Elbow and Paul Weller, Nancy Sinatra, the late Lisa Marie Presley and Robbie Williams.
