FOLLOWING the success of his autobiography, Telling Stories, earlier this year, Tim Burgess will release his new solo album Oh No I Love You on Monday 24 September.
The album’s release will be followed by a UK tour, starting in Aberdeen on October 18.
Speaking about his new album, Tim said: “The root of this album goes right back to a Kurt Wagner show in Manchester. It was the quietest yet the most powerful live performance I had ever seen and afterwards I carried Kurt's guitar to the car for him. I took the chance to ask him if he would ever consider writing a song with me. ‘Sure Tim, you write the music and I'll write the words’. That one song turned into an album and almost ten years after we first talked about it, the album is ready and it's called Oh No I Love You.”
The album features ten new songs and will be released as a download bundle and also on standard CD, limited edition CD (featuring additional bonus tracks) and super limited edition coloured vinyl.
The tour will feature Tim with his new four piece band including The Charlatans guitarist Mark Collins. Tour dates are as follows:
