King Crimson add dates to Uncertain Times UK tour

King Crimson have added three new dates to their upcoming UK tour.

The band will head out on the road on the Uncertain Times run of shows at the end of November – and they’ve extended their live commitments to take in further concerts in Nottingham, Liverpool and Edinburgh.

King Crimson say: “We may live in Uncertain Times but King Crimson will be on tour in the UK in October and November, playing tracks from all eras of KC history and beyond."

Prior to the start of the tour, King Crimson will release the new album Meltdown: Live In Mexico on 3CD/Blu-ray on October 19.

The footage was captured during the band’s five-night residency at the Teatro Metropolitan, Mexico City, in July 2017. It was mixed by Bill Rieflin from the full multi-track recordings, with the Blu-ray featuring more than two hours of HD multi-cam footage.

It’ll be presented in two mini-vinyl style gatefold packs with booklet, which includes photos by Tony Levin and new liner notes enclosed in an outer slipcase.
