Blue October have announced a short UK tour in support of eighth album Home, which was released last month.

They’ll play four shows in England in September, with tickets on sale as of 10am today (July 1).

Frontman Justin Furstenfeld says: “Our last album, Sway, was about finding inner peace and learning to live in a healthy way.

“Home is about what we do with our time on Earth – how we’re going to utilise that time in a positive way and make it the best we possibly can by bettering ourselves.”

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
