I’m lucky enough to play alongside one of the great prog rock drummers, @ndvirgilio but I had to pinch myself when I was caught up in this triple-decker drummer sandwich with Nick, Bill Bruford and Simon Phillips. I later talked with Simon about his playing on Mike Rutherford’s wonderful Smallcreep’s Day album. He remembered the sessions for that album with great fondness.
Out Now! "Counting Stars," the final single from the forthcoming Big Big Train album 'Woodcut.' Watch the video, created by Crystal Spotlight, now on YouTube.
'Woodcut' is out on 6th February.
Tickets go on general sale tomorrow for Big Big Train’s ‘Woodcut and Other Stories’ Tour which will take place in the autumn next year.
Our 2026 tour will end at the venerable Shepherd’s Bush Empire (I still have to pinch myself that BBT gets to play at theatres like this).
Thank you, as always, for supporting our music. We are looking forward to meeting listeners out on tour.
We got the chance to spend a precious minute or two with Justin Currie, one of Britain’s greatest ever songwriters, who is currently doing some launch events for his new book, The Tremelo Diaries.
