Jamie Lenman

It’s been more than three years but Jamie Lenman will be back out on the road later this year!
Lenman said: “I wasn’t intending to do any headline shows for PUKE – in fact, I wasn’t intending to any headline shows ever again – but the reaction to the album and the singles (as well as the crucial encouragement from my new agency Atonal) have convinced me that perhaps a short run of dates would be nice.
“I haven’t been out in over three years, and it’s much longer since I been to Scotland, so it’s going to be a special month – not least because it’s my birthday as well! I’ve never been to these venues before, which is very exciting, and I’m looking forward to playing the latest material for people, as well as sharing the stage with some new bands. It’s gonna be sick!”
