Spiritualized star hits comeback trail
Jason Pierce heads out on acoustic tour
Spiritualized frontman Jason Pierce is to go on an acoustic tour of the UK this autumn.
The dates will showcase songs from the forthcoming new Spiritualized album. Pierce will be accompanied on all dates by a string quartet, gospel singers and Spiritualized guitarist Doggen. Pierce will also play some covers and back catalogue classics, including Spacemen 3 songs.
