Nick D’Virgilio says: “I’m so thrilled to be taking Big Big Train into some new countries in 2023 as well as playing some venues that we’ve played before. It will be great to return to the beautiful Cadogan Hall in London. As we’re doing two nights there, these will be very special shows with about 45 minutes of material being played at one show which will not be performed at the other.”
Gregory Spawton concludes: “I’m very confident about Big Train’s future. Apart from playing live this year, we are also recording a new studio album for release in 2024 and are looking forward to taking Big Big Train across the Atlantic for Cruise To The Edge in March next year.”
