Nationernas Hus, Linkoping, on the 19th, and Debaser, Malmo, on the 20th. Then
I will be heading down to germany to play at Haus 73 on the 25th and Glies22,
Munster, on the 27th. Still looking for a few more gigs to fill those gaps, so
if any of your readers have any ideas…. I also have a new single coming out,
I am a pedestrian, on the 23rd september

18th sep – Landet, Stockholm
19th – Nationernas Hus, Linkoping
20th sep – Debaser, Malmo
