10 November 2010 Carl Barat - new single + dates for 2011

Having just completed a sold out UK tour Carl Barat releases new single ‘So Long My Lover’ on 13th December 2010.   The track is taken from his eponymous solo album and is a lush, dramatic love song, awash with strings and soaring vocals.  Further dates for 2011 have also been announced which see Carl head back out on the road with his fantastic five piece band.

 

The single rounds off a busy 2010 for Barat, having spent the early part of the year writing and recording the album, then playing the Reading and Leeds Festivals with the reformed Libertines.  His first book ‘Threepenny Memoir’ was also published to critical acclaim.  He is currently on an extensive tour of Europe and travels to Japan at the end of the month for a show with the Manic Street Preachers and headline dates.
