Richard Ashcroft - New Single and Live Dates

The end of a hugely successful year for Richard Ashcroft is marked with the release of the double AA side 7-inch single ‘Why Not Nothing?’ / ‘Sweet Brother Malcolm’ on the 4th December. Both the blisteringly powerful ‘Why Not Nothing?’ and the poignant, soulful ‘Sweet Brother Malcolm’ are taken from Richard Ashcroft’s platinum album ‘Keys To The World’.

Only held off the No.1 slot on it’s release in January by the freakish sales of Arctic Monkeys debut album, ‘Keys To The World’ has spawned the hit singles ‘Break The Night With Colour’, ‘Music Is Power’, and ‘Words Just Get In The Way’.

Having already completed two sold-out UK tours this year, plus a 30,000-capacity solo show at Old Trafford cricket ground, his biggest headline show since his days in The Verve, Richard Ashcroft is set to end 2006 with another UK tour. The dates are:

Wed 29th Nov Glasgow SECC

Thurs 30th Nov Manchester Evening News Arena

Sat 2nd Dec Newcastle Arena

Sunday 3rd Dec Birmingham NIA

Tuesday 5th Dec London Hammersmith Apollo
