Jamie Grey has been dreaming about this for a while. This October, he finally gets to live it — heading out on his first full UK and European headline tour, the Songs I Wrote Tour, armed with nothing but an acoustic guitar and a set of songs that have been quietly winning people over since 2020.
“I’ll be coming to you all to play the Songs I Wrote tour which will be just me and my acoustic guitar, up close and personal, raw and direct,” Grey says. “This is what I’ve always dreamt about. If you’ve connected with a song of mine since I started releasing songs in 2020 I’d really love to see you there.”
The run opens in Glasgow at King Tut’s Wah Wah Hut on October 1 and takes in Dublin, Copenhagen, Groningen, Utrecht, Arnhem, Munich, Cologne, Hamburg and Berlin before returning to the UK for dates in Newcastle, Manchester, London and Bristol through November. It’s an intimate run of venues perfectly suited to the kind of music Grey makes — piano ballads and acoustic soul songs that reward close listening and feel even better live.
If you haven’t come across his music yet, today’s new single ‘How Did We Get To Midnight’ is the perfect place to start — read more about it here. And if you’re already a fan, you already know this tour is not to be missed.
