				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Another thing to tick off everyone’s 2022 bingo sheet; after the whole planet had to deal with a global pandemic resulting in every artist’s tour’s being cancelled or postponed… Barnet based singer/songwriter/generally beloved musician has had to postpone a short series of dates on his brief UK tour. Not because of COVID… but because of chickenpox. Hardly what we expected, but in a statement released onto his Twitter page, you can clearly see the issue.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet">
<p dir="ltr" lang="en">Hello As you can see, I’m pretty under the weather right now with chicken pox so I’m sorry to say that I’m going to need to move my upcoming shows.</p>
<p>The rescheduled dates will be:<br />
April 12 &#8211; London Palladium<br />
April 13 &#8211; Manchester Opera house<br />
April 14 &#8211; Edinburgh Usher Hall <a href="https://t.co/tjrJPYygCo">pic.twitter.com/tjrJPYygCo</a></p>
<p>— george E Z R A (@george_ezra) <a href="https://twitter.com/george_ezra/status/1496170612938653696?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">February 22, 2022</a></p></blockquote>
<p><script src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" async="" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p><em>“As you can see, I’m pretty under the weather right now with chickenpox so I’m sorry to say that I’m going to need to move my upcoming shows.” </em>Ezra explains, adding, “<em>As we’ve had to change the venue in Edinburgh all tickets will be refunded. However, if you had tickets to the original date then you will have first access to tickets for the new show at Usher Hall and will receive an email over the course of the week including a presale link.” </em>And finally concluding, <em>“All tickets for London and Manchester are valid for the new dates. I hope you&#8217;ll be able to join me for the new dates! I can&#8217;t wait to be back on stage.”</em></p>
<p>In the video, Ezra elaborates that he hasn’t performed since 2019, so was “<em>much looking forward to getting back up there and swinging [his] hips”. </em>But aside from all of the disappointment, he now says that “<em>Even more than ever, [he] now cannot wait to see you”. </em>With the shows only being pushed back another month and a half, fans of Ezra will be hotly anticipating his return.</p>
<p>While we have been made to wait for his triumphant return to the stage a little while longer, those of you that may have tickets to his headline show at London’s Finsbury Park can still sit tight in the knowledge July 17<sup>th</sup> is slowly getting closer. With additional support from indie legends Blossoms, and singer-songwriter-newcomer Holly Humberstone, the show is guaranteed to fulfil pretty much anyone’s quota for summer vibes. Additional ticket information can be found <a href="https://www.songkick.com/artists/5526408-george-ezra">here</a>.</p>
<p>Until we get there though you’ll have to make do with Ezra’s latest offering to quell any needs you may have. Released last month, ‘A<em>nyone For You’ </em>stands toe to toe with any of Ezra’s other bangers and (obviously) comes with the promise of new tunes to come on June 10<sup>th</sup>. You can look into pre-ordering <em>Gold Rush Kid</em> <a href="https://store.georgeezra.com/?utm_source=Website&amp;utm_campaign=20220126&amp;utm_medium=owned&amp;utm_content=sitenavigation&amp;utm_refererr=direct&amp;utm_board=columbia-records-uk&amp;utm_country=GB&amp;utm_linkurl=GeorgeEzra.lnk.to%2Fofficial-store">here</a>, and listen to the new single below.</p>
<p>George Ezra’s rescheduled your dates:</p>
<p>12/4/22 – The Palladium – London<br />
13/4 – Opera House – Manchester<br />
14/4 – Usher Hall – Edinburgh</p>

				<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Franz Ferdinand and Mogwai, along with Frightened Rabbit, have been announced as the headliners for &#8216;A Night For Scotland&#8217; which will be taking place in support of Scottish independence taking place on 14th September.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/frn.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-medium wp-image-2001" src="http://www.mxdwn.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2014/09/frn-580x401.jpg" alt="frn" width="580" height="401" /></a></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span id="more-2000"></span>With the referendum for Scottish Independence coming ever closer, there are several artists keen to show their support for the &#8216;Yes&#8217; campaign. Taking place at Edinburgh&#8217;s Usher Hall, the event is also due to feature Scottish singer-songwriter Eddi Reader, a collaboration between Deacon Blue&#8217;s Lorraine McIntosh and Ricky Ross under the guise of McIntosh-Ross, and comedienne Elaine C Smith.</p>
<p>The events&#8217; promoter <a href="http://www.scotsman.com/what-s-on/music/scottish-independence-yes-supporters-plan-gig-1-3526464" target="_blank">Tommy Sheppard told The Scotsman</a>, &#8220;The Yes campaign has unleashed tremendous creative energy and now a small segment of Scotland’s artistic and creative community are getting together to prepare to move up another gear in the final days before the people of Scotland make the most important decision of their lives.”</p>
<p>Tickets for the event are available from today (1st September) and will cost £15, <a href="http://www.usherhall.co.uk/" target="_blank">click here to get yours</a>.</p>
