British folk singer-songwriter Tom Copson currently on tour with huge US band Hayseed Dixie

Brit troubadour hand picked to open for legendary folk rockers

Tom CopsonCambridgeshire based singer-songwriter Tom Copson, having recently released debut album ‘Woven’, is currently on tour with legendary US alt-folkies Hayseed Dixie.

Hand picked by the band to open for them on their 21 date UK tour that stretches throughout November, the British folk artist is said to be ‘thrilled’ at the prospect of joining the notoriously riotous group as they hit the road this winter.

Hayseed Dixie, who began life playing roots based covers of their heroes AC/DC, have picked up quite a reputation for their live show and their touring, both off stage and on. Their decades spanning career has seen them play around the world to millions of rabid fans.

Copson, who’s picked up his fair share of acclaim for his thoughtful lyrics, excellent live show and stunning vocal range, is looking forward to the experience of his first major tour support. His album, a mix of full, folk-pop anthems and pared back acoustic melodies, is available now and well worth uncovering.

Carousel – ‘Wolf’s Awake’

The latest from indie pop duo Carousel is the cute and catchy ‘Wolf’s Awake’ single. The pair from Brooklyn have the capacity to come up with some nice vintage synth sounds and layer this with delicate vocal melodies and palm-muted guitar riffs. Essential listening.
