NEW SCRITTI POLITTI CD TO GET U.S. RELEASE:



It appears that Green Gartside's new Scritti Politti album 'White Bread Black Beer' will get released in the U.S. (and hopefully Canada) through Nonesuch Records on July 25th, 2006 (it is due out on Rough Trade Records in the U.K. on May 29th). This is Green's first new album in seven years since 'Anomie & Bonhomie'. The best news of all is that there are plans for some tour dates in North America. Green recently started performing live again after over 20 + years (he suffered panic attacks from performing live so he stopped) under the moniker Double G and the Traitorous 3. His next U.K. gig is scheduled for the Hay Literary Festival, Friday June 2nd.
