The Big Moon - Announce a September UK intimate tour
A unique chance to see them live, up close and personal.
Mercury nominated, Alternative Pop four piece The Big Moon have announced that they will be joining The National Lottery’s United By Music tour with Music Venue Trust. The band will perform ten special shows in intimate venues across the country, to support Grassroots Music Venues amid the ongoing cost-of-living crisis. Avid supporters of Grassroots Music Venues, The Big Moon are the most recent addition to the line-up; legendary British 2Tone artist Rhoda Dakar, Glaswegian Post-Punk band Vlure, and rising Singer / Songwriter Michael Aldag have also announced tours of GMVs this month.
With one grassroots music venue closing each week, the tour has already seen Blossoms, Cat Burns, Metronomy and Bloc Party return to their roots to highlight the importance of these local venues as part of the music industry’s wider ecosystem, and as important local cultural hubs. The final headliner, Sam Ryder, will be performing a one off, intimate show at Chinnerys in Southend on the 8th of September. The tour also sees a range of artists, from established acts like The Big Moon to newcomers, embark on tours across the UK that aim to include venues and towns that are often overlooked on traditional touring routes.
The United by Music tour, organised by the charity Music Venue Trust and funded by The National Lottery started in June and is running until late September. Rhoda Dakar, alongside other established acts including Sleeper and Newton Faulkner and a host of new acts, are touring the country playing one hundred and fifty gigs at one hundred and thirty grassroots music venues across the UK. Every ticket buyer can take a guest with them for free (just by showing a lottery product) which makes the already cheap tickets even more affordable. you can buy tickets for the tour from: UnitedbyMusic.live.
