Veteran folk rockers Lindisfarne take to UK stages in 2024 with 60 dates signed up including performances at 02 Academy venues in Bournemouth, Leicester and London’s Shepherd’s Bush.
Famed for hits such as “Run For Home”, “Meet Me On The Corner” and “Lady Eleanor”, the ever-popular Geordies under the steerage of founder member Rod Clements continue to win the hearts and minds of live music lovers over 50 years on from their founding in the north east of England.
Says Clements: “People keep coming back to Lindisfarne and while that carries on, we carry on.
“Each year we seem to put on more shows and we’re thrilled to be adding 02 Academy theatres to our itinerary in 2024”.
The tour coincides with the release of legacy releases by both founding member Alan Hull and the band itself.
The late Hull’s 4CD, 90-track anthology ‘Singing A Song In The Morning Light’ includes no less than 77 previously-unreleased tracks, with several dozen titles previously undocumented.
The package is being released by Cherry Red Records, the label also behind ‘Brand New Day - The Mercury Years 1978-1979’ a 3CD summary of Lindisfarne’s mid-period with Mercury Records including all the albums plus A and B sides of singles and previously unreleased live recordings from the time.
