Tom Meighan has sold four million albums. He’s headlined Glastonbury, Reading And Leeds twice and most other major festivals in Europe. He’s had five No 1 albums and sung on classic anthems, streamed millions of times, as the lead singer of Kasabian. But now it’s time to start again.

What Tom Meighan hasn’t done in his career until now is write songs. And the early results of Tom’s songwriting are magnificent.

What’s new are a broad range of styles. In addition to the rock power and pounding groove of Kasabian, you’ll hear a blissed-out euphoria, a tenderness and a lyrical depth resulting from a period of emotional maturity.

The first taste of Tom’s solo music is Would You Mind. Rather than simply stream it, it’s a semi-acoustic anthem Tom wanted people to be able to own for nothing as a free download, to raise awareness of mental health.

A born frontman with an unmatched ability to get a crowd jumping, Tom’s natural enthusiasm means he can’t wait to return to the stage.

Joining Tom in his band are keyboardist/guitarist Bnann Infidel, guitarist Chris Haddon, bassist Ele Lucas, guitarist Brodie Maguire and drummer Gareth Young.

Musically, this time, the songs will come from Tom’s soul. Get ready for an electrifying return.

Supporting Tom Meighan on this tour is The Mercians, who are making noise across the Midlands with their ‘Sam Fender meets Catfish and the Bottlemen’ tones. People continue to argue if the north or the south has the better music scene. Well here is your answer... NEITHER! “We are bringing Indie back to the Midlands!” you can hear them scream up on stage, as a Midlands army scream back. This is music, politics, and hardcore partying rolled into one talented bunch of musicians.

Their latest track 'Just Like You' - A track about the human struggle to fight addiction, whether its drugs, alcohol or even social media is out November 4th.
