Steve Swallow. Gwilym Simcock, Mike Walker, Adam Nussbaum

Something exciting for June and July, a tour by the Impossible Gentlemen. In addition to the music of the first – brilliantly received album – they toured last year, the band members have been writing new compositions, including acouple of joint Mike Walker/ Gwilym Simcock co-composotions. “One’s a ballad, one’s got Southern rock, Zappa, all sorts really”, Mike walker told me, and a new tune by Steve Swallow. The good news for Londoners is that there are FOUR dates at Pizza Express. Here are the complete tour dates from impossiblegentlemen.com
