Sparrow And The Workshop Announce Single

As new UK tour dawns

Glasgow based trio Sparrow And The Workshop are set to release their new single ‘Black To Red’ on November 1st.

From Lulu to Isobel Campbell, Glasgow has produced a series of artists whose soul seems to reside somewhere in the United States. Newcomers to this lineage, Sparrow And The Workshop share a love of Americana.

Formed in Glasgow last year, Sparrow And The Workshop mark dark and brooding music which draws on the musical roots of the United States. Mixing country and blues with British elements, the band have won fans across the country.

Spending the summer on the road, Sparrow And The Workshop released their debut album earlier this summer. ‘Crystals Fall’ was a beautiful collection of musically stark material, with minimal instrumentation being used.

Unadorned by frills, the album was a word of mouth success. Never ones to rest on their laurels, Sparrow And The Workshop have confirmed details of a new single due for release in November.

‘Black To Red’ is set to be released through Distiller Records, and was recorded by Tim Rowkins. The band’s first new material since the release of the album, the band are currently hard at work on their second full length effort.

The single launches a new tour of Britain and Ireland which opens tonight (September 22nd) in Cork. Moving to the mainland, Sparrow And The Workshop are due to play a number of shows across the country.

Running throughout October, the tour draws to a close in Southampton’s Joiners venue on October 18th. Tickets for the upcoming shows are on sale now!
