Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds have announced an extensive arena tour of the UK and Europe.
News of the long-awaited tour comes after the band played their first show in three years, last month. The three-year break was due to the death of Cave’s son, Arthur, who fell from a cliff in Brighton in July 2015. His family’s ordeal became the subject of subsequent film and documentary One More Time With Feeling, also based on the recording of the acclaimed 2016 album ‘Skeleton Tree‘.
“We’ve been in a strange place, I’m coming out and blinking into the light… It’s good to be playing again,” said Cave of his return to touring.
Now after touring his native Australia and the US, Cave will return to the UK and Europe for a run of shows in September – calling at Bournemouth, Manchester, Glasgow, Nottingham and London in the UK before heading to the continent.
