Kicking off at Bristol’s SWX on Friday 31st May, the run also sees St. Vincent play a very special date at London’s Royal Albert Hall on Saturday 1st June. Long hailed as one of the most fascinating presences in modern music, St. Vincent will be bringing her mesmerising live show to these shores in the wake of the 26th April release of her highly anticipated seventh album, All Born Screaming.

Ahead of the LP’s release, Annie Clark – AKA St. Vincent – dropped the latest taste of her upcoming sound with Flea, featuring Foo Fighters man Dave Grohl. Featuring the Dallas, Texas-hailing St. Vincent on vocals and all instruments except drums and bass – handled respectively by Dave Grohl and Justin Meldal-Johnsen – Flea is raw desire made manifest atop a foundation of thundering grooves and searing guitar figures. Accompanied by a lyric video featuring behind the scenes footage from the All Born Screaming sessions, Flea unveils another dimension of the album’s emotionally apocalyptic side one.

Check out the lyric for Flea below:

St. Vincent’s first self-produced record, All Born Screaming is an invitation to test the limits of what is possible, and to then keep going. Brought to life with the aid of a highly curated roster of friends – Rachel Eckroth, Josh Freese, Dave Grohl, Mark Guiliana, Cate Le Bon, Justin Meldal-Johnsen, Stella Mogzawa and David Ralicke – the album is an unadulterated expression of St. Vincent’s singular vision.

Foo Fighters @ O2 Shepherd's Bush Empire (Kalpesh Patel)

Foo Fighters Let Loose At O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire

Just two nights after levelling The Academy Dublin and with Manchester’s O2 Ritz in their sights, Foo Fighters storm the O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire for the second of three word-of-mouth, in-person-ticket-only club shows. No pre-sale frenzy. No dynamic pricing warfare. Just queues round the block and 2,000 devotees crammed into the Empire like it’s 1996 again.
