Thomas Dolby tour dates
By CMU Editorial | Published on Wednesday 10 August 2011
Acclaimed producer, artist and all-round synth innovator Thomas Dolby has announced plans to tour in support of his new album ‘A Map Of A Floating City’. His first studio LP in 20 years, due out on 24 Oct, will feature guest artists including Mark Knopfler, Regina Spektor and Imogen Heap.
Describing the three-part album as “a travelogue across three imaginary continents”, Thomas goes on to say: “This album does not sound electronic at all. I have zero desire to add to the myriad of machine-based, synth-driven grooves out there. So I’m returning to what I do best, which is write songs, tell stories”.
