RICHARD ASHCROFT has spent much of the summer inspiring huge singalongs to classics like “Bitter Sweet Symphony” and “The Drugs Don’t Work” as special guest on Oasis’s stadium tour. It inspired Louder’s review to hail him as, “Every inch the rock star with his cut cheekbones, swaggering walk, soaring voice and armed with songs that could go toe to toe with almost anyone.” He made such an impact that his upcoming UK headline tour has snowballed with several additional dates confirmed following phenomenal demand for tickets.
It positions RICHARD ASHCROFT to make maximum impact when his new album Lovin’ You is released on October 10th – and he further amplifies anticipation by sharing the record’s title track as his new single. It features a recording of the iconic guitar riff from Mason Williams’ Grammy-winning 1968 track “Classical Gas.” Mason Williams was delighted when he heard the new song “Lovin’ You.” The forthcoming album will also include the previously shared single “Lover,” which arrived with a video directed by Richard.
The Oasis tour has generated a fresh rediscovery of Richard’s work, from his huge success with The Verve led by the 11 x Platinum #1 smash “Urban Hymns” through to an expansive solo career. Now the two-time Ivor Novello and triple BRIT Award winner is set to play the biggest UK headline tour of his career to date.
