Mark Lanegan announces tour dates for spring 2016

Including 13 acoustic dates in the UK and Ireland, the jaunt marks his first UK appearances since 2015's End of the Road festival, with Lanegan currently at work on the follow-up to 2014's well-received Phantom Radio LP – the ninth studio album under his own name.

Read our 2012 interview with Mark Lanegan here, where the Seattle veteran reflects on his career with Screaming Trees, Queens of the Stone Age, The Gutter Twins, Isobel Campbell and more.

Support on all dates comes from South London-based bluesman Duke Garwood, who collaborated with Lanegan on the 2013 album Black Pudding. Watch the video for Disco Lights, from Garwood's 2015 album Heavy Love here.

The announcement precedes February's similarly-intimate UK dates for Lanegan's Gutter Twins bandmate Greg Dulli, including visits to Glasgow's King Tut's (10 Feb) and Manchester's Gorilla (11 Feb).

Watch the video for Floor of the Ocean (from Phantom Radio), and read on for Mark Lanegan's tour dates in the UK and Ireland.
