The legendary GAZ COOMBES returns to The Sugarmill on 22^ndJune.
For nearly two decades with Supergrass, Coombes came to embody the oddball end of British indie and Britpop. But it is through his solo work that he has found himself. With his 2015 album Matador, he presented a new musical identity: wide-screen, emotional, cinematic and full of artistic surprises. It earned him a Mercury Prize nomination.“With MatadorI almostgot it right…” he says.

With his upcoming album World’s Strongest Man, Coombes brings that solo self into dazzling definition. This is an album more outgoing than its predecessor – with a greater variety of moods than we’ve heard from him before.

Writing and recording World’s Strongest Man, Coombes has finally felt a bit of that musical euphoria he first sensed at fourteen, listening to Abbey Roador Pet Soundsin his bedroom. It comes from music that is “Full of love. Experimental. Uncertain but confident. It believed in itself, but it wasn’t scared of being vulnerable.”

World’s Strongest Man is released on 4^thMay 2018.

Tickets go on sale Weds 25th April at 9am via  The Sugarmill  Music Mania or Gigantic.
