Steven Wilson Announces ‘The Future Bites’ UK Tour Dates
The September 2020 trek includes shows at Nottingham Arena and London’s 02 Arena.
Steven Wilson has announced arena dates for his 2020 ‘The Future Bites’ tour, including two UK dates at London’s O2 and the Nottingham Arena for September. These will be the biggest venues Wilson has played following his tour for 2017’s To The Bone album.
“Every time I make a new album, it’s hugely important for me that it holds a unique place in my catalogue and won’t simply be more of the same,” says Wilson of his forthcoming sixth solo album, details of which are still to be confirmed. “Moving into the third decade of the 21st century and my second decade as a touring solo artist, it felt like time to apply the same philosophy to the live experience.
“I want to challenge myself to create something that confronts my own notions (and hopefully the audience’s too) of how to present my music in a concert situation. This has become ‘The Future Bites’ – a series of special events at larger venues, something on a grander and more immersive scale. I’m already hugely excited about them!”
Tickets for all shows go on general sale at 10am local time on Friday 25th October. For further information on all Steven Wilson’s forthcoming shows, please visit the artist’s official website.
