Robyn Hitchcock is thrilled to announce that Mike Heron will be opening all the dates on his UK tour, starting in Newcastle on April 7, 2010. Mike was a founder member of the Incredible String Band, psych-folk legends from the 1960s and one of Robyn's teenage favourites.
Mike will be accompanied by is daughter Georgia Seddon on keyboards for all the dates, plus Mike Hastings on guitar and Solveig Askvik on fiddle on selected shows.
This will be Mike's first full British tour for some years, coming after his much-appreciated cameo appearances at the Incredible String Band celebration and the Pestival show in London last year.
Coincidentally, the first four ISB records have been re-released by Fledgling Records, re-mastered by Joe Boyd and John Wood.
Tickets for Robyn Hitchcock's UK tour are available from the usual outlets and on Ticketweb
