The intimate Kingston show will come ahead of Blake’s 2022 UK and European tour, which is scheduled to kick off in Glasgow on April 30. Dates will then follow in Manchester (May 1), Sheffield (May 15) and London (May 17).
Last month, James Blake shared his latest single ‘Famous Last Words’. It’s set to appear on the COVID-delayed ‘Friends That Break Your Heart’ alongside previous singles ‘Say What You Will’ and ‘Life Is Not The Same’.
The forthcoming record follows the artist’s 2019 studio effort ‘Assume Form’, which NME said found James Blake “clear-headed and in focus like never before”.
Our glowing five-star review added: “Gone is the hazy, south London night bus ambience of Blake gone by. In its place is a newfound sharpness, a twinkle of grand piano signalling the record’s arrival, while, lyrically, the musician pushes through the cloudy mindset that once consumed him.”
