The British Rock Art Group, who are a Brighton based group of printers and craftspeople committed to re-installing the tradition of beautiful, screen-printed, collectable, promotional gig posters.
Vetiver Tour - New Dates Added / Final Route
13/05/08
Vetiver arrive this week for a great-looking
34-date tour of UK / Europe. The final four dates have just been added (in
Toulouse, Nantes, Rouen and
Zichem), and the final tour route is posted below. We'd like to remind London fans again that the London date has changed. Previously scheduled to take place at St. Giles in The Fields, the show has been moved to another church,
St Pancras Parish Church, on the Euston Road. Anyone who has already bought tickets for the St. Giles show will find they remain valid for St. Pancras Parish Church. The show will see Vetiver supported by a great line up of
Meg Baird (of Espers), David Thomas Broughton, and
Adrian Crowley. Tickets cost £11 and are
available in advance here.
The band's tour kick off in May at the
Fatcat Brighton Festival show on the 16th. The band have recently added a show in
Zurich on 20th May, and the show on 4th June in
Manchester has changed venue to
Dulcimer. Any original tickets sold will remain valid, and tickets remain available from the same outlets.
Vetiver will be releasing a brand new
LP on
May 26th entitled
Thing Of The Past, that sees the bands covering some of their favourite tracks.
