Paolo Nutini announces another date to his epic UK tour later this year atĀ Liverpool M&S Bank ArenaĀ onĀ Saturday 10th December.
Last week Paolo announced four new shows at Glasgow OVO Hydro in December 2022, selling out all four shows and a whopping 50,000 tickets in an hour. Due to overwhelming demand he added a fifth date on 20th December.
Paolo NutiniĀ new albumĀ āLast Night In The BittersweetāĀ is a 70-minute epic that spans the distance from classic rock to post-punk to hypnotic Krautrock, in the process proving its value as his deepest, most varied, most accomplished, and ultimately most rewarding set so far.Ā
The insistent Motorik rhythms of Ā āLose ItāĀ brings shades of early ā70s German bands likeĀ CanĀ andĀ Neu!, and are a product ofĀ PaoloĀ writing increasingly on bass guitar. At the other end of the spectrum,Ā āThrough The Echoesā,Ā which is currently A-List at Radio 2 is a timeless classic in the lineage ofĀ Ben E. KingĀ andĀ Otis Redding, withĀ NutiniāsĀ vocal delivery reminding us why he got snapped up byĀ AtlanticĀ in the first place.
The album opens withĀ āAfterneathāĀ which samples Patricia Arquetteās memorable speech in the final scenes ofĀ True Romance, the 1993 cult classic written byĀ Quentin Tarantino.Ā āAcid EyesāĀ is the kind of love song, hopeful but mournful, that sticks in your mind, shapes your mood and wonāt let go, whereasĀ āPetrified In LoveāĀ has the cheerful spikiness of Squeeze.
PaoloĀ recently performed with Liam Gallagher at Knebworth and announced details of aĀ headlineĀ UK and EuropeanĀ tour, which commences inĀ LimerickĀ onĀ August 21stĀ and includes two nights at the historicĀ Alexandra PalaceĀ in LondonĀ andĀ fiveĀ nightsĀ at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow.Ā
A recap of everythingĀ PaoloĀ has achieved to date reiterates his status as one of British musicās biggest success stories. Two of his three albums to date, āSunny Side Upā and āCaustic Loveā, have hit #1 on the UK album charts as he amassed 8Ā million global album sales, 8 million UK single sales, and 1.5 billion global streams.
TheĀ Ivor NovelloĀ winner and multiple BRIT Award nominee has also collected a remarkable 18 Platinum certifications in the UKĀ alone.
