Event information

Four years after releasing the critically acclaimed album ‘Crazy Beautiful’, Tensheds is back with his third album ‘The Dandy Punk Prince’. Fresh with a new line-up of just piano & drums, Tensheds makes a deliberate departure from his previous work to deliver what he has coined ‘21st Century Blues’ – a grittier, heavier and edgier Blues Punk Rock sound.

Once described as “Tom Waits & Jerry Lee Lewis’ love child”, Tensheds has honed his craft on the road – his last tour lasted two years and totalled 300 dates across the UK & Europe, during which time he supported legends such as John Mayall, Mick Taylor, The Blockheads, as well as touring the UK five times as Hazel O’Connor’s special guest.

With his new album fast gaining critical praise; Classic Rock “You’ll believe the hype”, UNCUT 4/5, MOJO “Exceptional” – as well as extensive BBC Radio play, Tensheds is a rising star and a ‘totally unique artist’.

Touring the news album ‘The Dandy Punk Prince’ which was released on Otcober 30th.
