Having risen through the ranks of the UK indie world, championed by pop stars and indie icons and collaborated with Suede legend Bernard Butler on her stunning 2013 self-titled album, the inimitable Natalie McCool has announced a full band tour this Autumn.
Alongside playing more established venues (detailed below), Natalie has recruited fans from her facebook page for her bedroom tour – envisioned to reflect the themes of the new single with Natalie intending to ‘build a fortress with fans.’
At each show Natalie will record her audience singing along to the track and then compile the vocals as a ‘Fortress of fans’ on a collated version of the track, resulting in a huge crescendo of voices, with every fan appearing on the final version. The official UK tour is detailed below alongside the bedroom dates.
