MACHINE HEAD Newport Centre Newport 17/02/2010 26.00

MACHINE HEAD have added 5 more dates to their UK headline run in support of current silver-certified album (60,000 UK units sold), 'The Blackening'. The tour, dubbed 'The Black Procession' now includes shows in Newport, Leeds, Newcastle, Dublin and Belfast.

The guys will be supported by labelmates, HATEBREED (whose eponymous new album is out NOW), Bleeding Through, with All Shall Perish opening the evening's proceedings. Tickets for the extra dates go on sale now FRIDAY 27th November from LIVE NATION.
Since the release of 'The Blackening' in March of 2007, Machine Head have toured incessantly, playing more than 300 shows. While this 3 year-long album cycle has seen the band share stages as main support to Metallica, Slipknot, Slayer, Marilyn Manson and Megadeth, headline the Jägermeister stage on the Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival, and headline the legendary Wacken festival to over 85,000 people, it hasn't seen them on a full-fledged headline tour, playing full-length sets. Until now.

Machine Head frontman/guitarist Robb Flynn says, "After 3 years of touring we are beyond stoked to finish this tour cycle on our own terms, with our show, our stage, our production, our control and we're lucky enough to bring three of our favourite bands along with us. It's going to be fucking massive!!!" Hatebreed vocalist Jamey Jasta concurs, stating, "Machine Head and Hatebreed on the same stages across Europe?!?! This will be the heaviest and most pit-inducing tour of 2010. Make no mistake, if you miss this show, I feel sorry for you!"

LUCY WAINWRIGHT Toucan Club Cardiff 21/03/2010

Lucy Wainwright Roche was born into songwriting royalty as the daughter of Suzzy Roche (of The Roches) and Loudon Wainwright III. Even in such an artistically talented family - half-brother Rufus Wainwright and half-sister Martha Wainwright are both successful musicians - Roche remains unique. Her voice sounds more delicate than that of her sister Martha, and her songs feel less theatrical than those of her brother Rufus.

Roche was once an elementary schoolteacher in New York City, but when Rufus Wainwright asked her to join him on tour as a background vocalist, she caught the performing bug. Life on the road soon took over, and she has released two EPs since: 8 Songs and then 8 More.

She will perform at the Tocun Club on March 21st – tickets are priced at £8.00 Tickets from Box Office 02920 230130, http://www.seetickets.com/ and http://www.p4music.co.uk/
