News: UK dates for blues rockers JARED JAMES NICHOLS and MORELAND & ARBUCKLE (June 2016)

Blues/rockers Jared James Nichols and Moreland & Arbuckle are on tour in the UK in the coming week (19-28 June).

Following his European tour with Zakk Wylde, Wisconsin-bred Jared James Nichols returns to the UK for a series of headlining live concerts followed by an extensive October UK tour supporting legendary blues guitarist Walter Trout. Special guests on the June dates are Bad Touch and Dave Hanson.

To coincide with Jared’s return to the European stage, Listenable Records will release the Highwayman EP as an exclusive limited edition orange coloured 10 inch vinyl (500 copies). On June 3, Jared digitally released a brand new single, ‘Don’t You Try’.

On Sunday 26 June, at 20:00 GMT, Jared is the special guest of Pete Feenstra in his weekly Feature show on Get Ready to ROCK! Radio.

Future show guests Moreland & Arbuckle will be heading out on their UK tour from 22 June.

Newly signed to Alligator Records Moreland & Arbuckle released their album ‘Promised Land Or Bust’ in May.

Celebrating their 15th Anniversary, guitarist Aaron Moreland and vocalist/harpist Dustin Arbuckle have captured the visceral spirit of the early Delta blues and the raw energy of post-World War II urban blues and distilled it all into a hard-driving and powerful garage-rock configuration accompanied by Kendall Newby’s drums.
