Easy Star All-Stars New Single and Glasto Dates

• 4th Jun 2009

This summer is going to be a busy one for The Easy Star All-Stars who will be supporting the release of their recent album ‘Easy Star’s Lonely Hearts Dub Band’ with a new single, a trip round the festival circuit, the European phase of their Lonely Hearts World Tour that will take in the UK this August, and an extra-special trio of gigs at Glastonbury Festival!

The Easy Star All Star version of The Beatles’ ‘She’s Leaving Home’ is a real taste of summer and should be the soundtrack to everyone’s beach parties and picnics in the park. Besides being a superb summer song, The Easy Star All-Star’s version of the Beatles’ ‘She’s Leaving Home’ is a perfect example of the re-imagining this group has perfected over the course of three successful albums. The vocals come courtesy of band member Kirsty Rock whose gorgeous voice has previously been heard on both of the band’s first two albums (“Great Gig In The Sky” from Dub Side Of The Moon and “Paranoid Android” from Radiodread).

This is the second single from their wonderful ‘Easy Stars Lonely Hearts Dub Band’ album, released earlier this year, and will be available to download on to every discerning i-Pod on July 6.

Easy Star All-Stars have been booked for an unprecedented three completely unique shows at this year’s Glastonbury Festival. Each night they will perform one of their albums on a different stage, kicking off with the dance stage, where they’ll perform Dub Side Of The Moon on the Friday night, followed by the Park Stage (Radiodread) on Saturday night and then the big finale on the Pyramid Stage on Sunday, where 130,000 fans can watch them perform Lonely Hearts Dub Band.
