Jerry Leger has announced a May tour with twelve dates starting in High Wycombe on May 8th. The tour promotes the Canadian’s ‘Latent Uncovers’ EP, which came out earlier this year. The four songs were recorded and filmed live in the studio as part of a covers series for Cowboy Junkies’ Latent Recordings label. Leger’s most recent album, his eleventh, ‘Nothing Pressing‘ (produced by Michael Timmins), was described by Keith Hargreaves as “a treat for the ears“.
