Carl Barat announces second solo gig

Former Libertine to play two gigs in Wakefield

Former Libertines and Dirty Pretty Things man Carl Barat has announced that he will play a second live date at the Wakefield Escobar next month.

Barat's first performance will now be on March 6, after the previously-announced March 7 date sold out.

Barat recently played a slew of support slots in the USA for Glasvegas. Although he played a secret gig at Glastonbury last summer, the Wakefield dates will mark his first headline solo shows in the UK.
