Green Lung Announce European Tour Dates
Now that their new full-length, Black Harvest (review here), has been released amid a flurry of (due) praise, London’s Green Lung have announced initial plans to take their gospel of British-countryside cultism to the people of the United Kingdom and beyond. If you missed them amid the many, many others included in the lineup announcement for Roadburn 2022 in the Netherlands, they’ll be there doing Black Harvest in full, which is pretty fancy, and they had previously been confirmed for Desertfest London 2022 as well, which should account nicely for that April 30 date at the Underworld in Camden Town. I would be greatly surprised if those two represented the only festivals the band will play in 2022. There’s a lot of year still to unfold. Like, all of it.
With the assumption then of more to come, the following dates might be looked at as a first round but for the fact that Green Lung have already tested UK waters to support the album, and who the hell knows, they may yet sneak in more gigs before the first batch of these comes around in February. They’re calling the run ‘Folklore, Riffs and Legends of Britain’ and they’ll be out with King Witch, which, yes, is a righteous pairing indeed. Kudos to whoever put that one together. It’s gonna be a big-sounding show.
From the (guess I’ll go live on the) internet:
