CHART-TOPPING band British Sea Power have announced a homecoming show in Kendal this November.
The indie rock six-piece, three of whom hail from the Auld Grey Town, will be performing their favourite songs from the past ten years in collaboration with Ulverston Brass Band as part of a national tour.
This project has been two years in the making and is the first time British Sea Power have entered a music collaboration with another performing group.
British Sea Power have released seven albums since 2003 and are currently the longest-serving band/artist signed to Rough Trade Records.
Their track 'Remember Me' was voted number 9 in the most important hundred tracks of BBC6 Music’s lifetime by the station’s listeners and they have enjoyed muscial endorsements from the likes of David Bowie, Jarvis Cocker and Radiohead.
BSP have also become known for their sensitive film scorings, including the recent ‘From the Sea to the Land Beyond’ which has now been released as their seventh LP.
Tickets are available through the Brewery Arts Centre, who have booked the event, but the venue has yet to be announced.
