SPARKLEHORSE are headlining the inaugural WITNNESS RISING tour.

Following the success of the Rising Stage at the first ever Witnness festival in Dublin last year, a tour preceding this year’s festival will visit four cities in Ireland, with a bill that features , Ed Harcourt and newcomers Gemma Hayes and Pat McMellow.

The Witnness promoters are furthering their attempt to bring the grassroots of Irish music to the public by planning four more tours to be completed by the end of June 2002.
