“Caught between The Pogues and Bellowhead, [Skinny Lister] takes the folk-rock-drinking-songs and agit-prop template and lifts it on to the sound of old seafaring men - to satisfying effect” THE DAILY MIRROR
Plotting another end-of-year bonanza - Skinny Lister - will be back for a fresh stretch of UK shows in Winter 2024. Regularly cited as one of the best live bands in the biz, the Skinnies’ annual live pilgrimage around the UK has become the stuff of gig circuit legend in recent years. And already champing at the bit to go again, the band will be hitting the road for a run of unmissable fixtures from Newcastle to Nottingham, Bristol to Birmingham, multiple venues in Scotland, plus sizing-up the prospect of a big pre-Christmas finale at London’s The Scala at the tail end of this year. Following the release of their rave-received ‘Shanty Punk’ record last year, it seems Dan, Lorna and co. are not resting on their laurels any time soon and are already dropping teasers for some potential new material landing in time for these shows. As Dan Heptinstall says of the 2024 Winter tour:
“Our end of year wouldn’t be the same without hitting the road for our annual Skinny UK Tour. And Christmas doesn’t officially start until we hit London for the Skinny Christmas bash, for which we go even bigger this year - at the amazing Scala in Kings Cross. Can’t wait to get back out there for some serious partying! We might even find space in the set to test drive a few new tracks. See you at the barrier!”
