Ginger Wildheart adds UK dates

Ginger Wildheart has added further dates to his previously announced UK tour.

The Ginger Wildheart Band will hit the road with Ryan Hamilton & The Traitors on all dates, along with Ginger’s other band Massive Wagons. He’ll also perform in Hey! Hello! in the support slot at his London date on July 22.

Former Wildhearts bassist Danny McCormack will open at the Leeds, Newcastle and Cambridge shows in his new punk band, The Main Grains.

Ginger said: “Let’s feed your head and heart with some mighty melody and gargantuan guitars.

“The whole event is set to be a classic rock package, the likes of which haven’t been seen on these shores since bands could all play.”

The Wildhearts released live album Never Outdrunk, Never Outsung - Phuq Live last month. The newly announced dates can be found below in bold.
