Celebrating 25 years since the release of his Mercury Prize and Brit-nominated debut album, Tom McRae is hitting the road with a full-band tour for the first time in years. Playing the debut album in full (and selected career highlights) from his 9 studio albums to date, McRae and band will revisit the raw emotion and poetic storytelling that have made him one of the UK’s most beloved singer-songwriters.
“It’s been a long time since I played these songs the way they were meant to be heard—with a great band and a room full of voices singing along,” says McRae. “This tour is for everyone who has been on this journey with me—it’s a celebration of the music we’ve made together.”
With a reputation for intensely moving live performances and wry, self-deprecating humour, McRae’s shows promise an unforgettable night for old and new fans alike.
“McRae has quietly become one of our greatest living songwriters.” – The Independent “A master of melancholy, McRae’s songs shimmer with raw emotion and poetic beauty.” – MOJO “One of the most underrated songwriters of his generation, delivering consistently powerful and intimate music.” – Uncut “His live performances are spellbinding—achingly beautiful songs wrapped in dark humour and wry storytelling.” – The Guardian “McRae’s voice is a thing of fragile beauty, carrying lyrics that cut straight to the heart.” – Q Magazine
