Billy Bragg is back on the road and people staying in Bournemouth hotels can see him play on Sunday December 12th.
The English musician, known for mixing outspoken political views with romantic
themes in his songs, is due to perform at the south coast resort's O2 Academy as
part of his UK tour next month.
Although there has been no new studio album from Bragg since 2008's Mr Love &
Justice, the artist and activist has been as busy as ever this year.
As well as contributing new songs to Mick Gordon's theatre production Pressure
Drop, he played at the SXSW festival in the US to promote his Jail Guitar Doors
initiative, which donates musical instruments for the rehabilitation of prison
inmates.
Fans of the singer will no doubt he pleased to see him return to British stages this
winter, with the insightful commentary of Bragg's songs seeming particularly
relevant in the current climate of economic uncertainty.
Classic tracks such as A New England, Between the Wars and Sexuality could feature
in the Bournemouth performance, as well as material from his more recent albums.
Tickets are priced at £16 and the gig is due to begin at 19:00 GMT.
For more information on this event, visit the O2 Academy website or contact the
venue on 0844 477 2000.
