Portrait by Tom Oldham
Nick Cave And The Bad Seeds have announced a series of UK and European live dates (ending in a show in Tel Aviv). The news came this morning with a quote from the singer saying: "We’ve been in a strange place, I’m coming out and blinking into the light… It’s good to be playing again.”
The eight week tour is the first the band have undertaken in this region since 2014.
Tickets go on sale at NickCave.com at 9am GMT Friday February 17.
