Jake Bugg is ready to hit the road again, but he’s switching up his usual tour routine this time. In 2024, the acclaimed songwriter embarks on an extensive series of UK headline shows, aiming to bring his music to towns often overlooked by mainstream tours.
The journey kicks off at Warrington’s Parr Hall on 5th March. Jake intends to diverge from the standard London–Manchester–Bristol circuit and connect with fans in new locations. The tour will include stops in towns like Peterborough, Newcastle-under-Lyme, Grimsby, and York, wrapping up in Torquay on 3rd May.
What’s more, each night promises double the entertainment. Fans can expect two sets from Jake – one acoustic and one electric. This dual performance approach means audiences will get a taste of both his classic hits and the freshest tracks from his recent album, Saturday Night, Sunday Morning.
