Gareth Liddiard to celebrate his debut album with a tour

Gareth Liddiard released his debut solo studio album, Strange Tourist, on October 1, 2010. The album, a concept album based on the themes of war, drugs and existential reflection of fame and of the public gaze, was not a commercial success. Critics, however, noted its themes and tonality. The album is now considered to be an underrated masterpiece.

The singer, along with his band, stated in their announcement of the page that:

"We were given an initial plan that took her treatment up to late October 2023; however, a few weeks ago, we received the news that she will now have to undertake treatment until the end of April 2024, which has really messed us up financially."

The statement continues:

"When we first announced Fi’s diagnosis, we were inundated with offers of help, which we truly appreciate. But wanted to wait to take those offers up until we really needed them, and now we do.We really appreciate all of your love and support, Fi is staying strong and positive and she will see you all on the other side once we get her all fixed up."

Aside from working with TFS and The Drones alongside Fiona Kitschin and others, Gareth Liddiard is best known for his work as part of the supergroup Springtime, where he worked alongside Chris Abrahams and Jim White.
