Johnny Borrell has announced eight small club shows previewing his new solo material. Starting in Southampton at The Cellar on June 11th, he will play intimate shows in Aldershot, Bristol, York, Birmingham and Leicester before performing at the iconic 100 Club in London on June 18th.
Earlier this year Johnny released a four track cassette recording of new tracks 'Dahlia Allegro' and 'Pan-European Supermodel Song (Oh Gina!)' as a Double A side limited edition 7" vinyl.
Speaking to French radio station Oui FM, Johnny described the new material:
"We had gone to the South Of France to a small house in the Pays Basque last year and the music just came very naturally. It's an album that was born in the spirit of a party, and the arrangements for the songs come from that atmosphere."
More news on Johnny's debut solo album will follow shortly.
