Sam Richardson has been announced as the special guest on Newton Faulkner’s UK tour taking place this September through to October.
Hailing from the rugged north coast of Cornwall, Richardson’s live shows are said to evoke “the timeless power of Bruce Springsteen’s E Street Band and Tom Petty’s Heartbreakers” with song writing built for the modern era.
Richardson washand-picked by Glastonbury-founder Michael Eavis himself to support Wolf Alice and the legendary Supergrass – On their 25th anniversary show, to a sold out 8,000 capacity crowd on Worthy Farm (what would be the last gig on Worthy Farm for 2 years) – Sam Richardson and his band, The Renegades, were entrusted with the task of opening the 50,000 capacity Main Stage at Boardmasters 2021 – The first to play the stage since George Ezra closed the festival back in 2018.
“On the forthcoming UK tour, I’ll be focusing on the songs that work best with just a vocal and guitar part and no musical multitasking or loops,” said main act Newton Faulkner. Stripping his songs back to their purest form. Newton will be out there solo, just him, his acoustic guitars, and his voice.
VIP tickets, including soundcheck and meet and greets, are available from here. Guitar Academy tickets will include a guitar workshop with Newton before the show. Tickets for all shows are available from The Gig Cartel and See Tickets.
