Sam Amidon begins an autumn tour of the UK, featuring music from his new album, The Following Mountain, and more, at The Cuban Embassy in Birmingham this Saturday, following a free set at the Night of Surprise festival in Cologne, Germany, on Friday. The UK tour continues with performances in Brighton, Bristol, Manchester, Leeds, Edinburgh, Sheffield, and Newcastle, culminating with a show at Cadogan Hall in London as part of the EFG London Jazz Festival on November 19. See below for details of the UK tour dates; for all the latest, visit nonesuch.com/on-tour.

The Following Mountain represents a new approach for Sam Amidon, who shifts from his previous norm of re-working traditional folk songs and presents nine wholly original compositions, with some lyrics drawing on traditional sources. The album was created with producer Leo Abrahams and frequent Amidon collaborator Shahzad Ismaily, with a rare guest appearance by drummer Milford Graves.

To pick up a copy of The Following Mountain, head to iTunes, Amazon, and the Nonesuch Store, where CD and vinyl orders include a download of the complete album at checkout, and listen to the album on Apple Music and Spotify.
