Less Than Jake plot UK trip

Less Than Jake have confirmed a run of UK dates during July and August.

The 13 gigs include headline shows alongside festival sets, and follow a support tour with Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! last month.

LTJ recently released four live shows recorded on bassist Roger Lima’s minidisc player in the last decade.

Drummer Vinny Fiorello explained: “None of these recordings are doctored. We wanted to be archivists of a moment in time – not surgically reconstruct the recording after the fact.”

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
