LISBEE STAINTON TO SUPPORT GRETCHEN PETERS ON UK TOUR
Lisbee Stainton is to support Gretchen Peters on her UK tour in March and April 2012.
As one of the UK’s brightest new songwriters, Lisbee Stainton’s 2010 album ‘Girl On An Unmade Bed’ led to widespread critical acclaim, national airplay and tours across the UK and mainland Europe supporting Joan Armatrading and Paul Carrack.
Lisbee’s latest album ‘Go’ has seen her star continue to rise. The Daily Mirror describe ‘Go’ as "An edifying experience", while The Independent on Sunday said of the 24-year-old singer, “Lisbee is a stoic solipsist existing chiefly on a diet of grave self-questioning and ultra-idiomatic melody. She's talented."
Lisbee will complete her innovative ‘Living Room Tour’, which has already included a date on the nuclear submarine HMS Vigilant, before supporting Gretchen Peters at selected dates across the UK.
