Back in the UK! - 'Lucky Stars' Dean Friedman, live April, May and August 2023.
Dean Friedman embarks on the second leg of his
2023 UK/Ireland Tour
One of the true greats of American music – Liverpool Sound & Vision
Dean Friedman, one of the pre-eminent songwriters of his generation, announces the second leg of a 40+City UK/Ireland concert tour. The next leg of the tour runs from April 22nd thru August 20th, 2023, including stops in Liverpool, London, Birmingham, Belfast, Dublin, Cardiff, Bath, Sheffield, Rayleigh, Aberdeen, Glasgow and finishing up with an eight-day run at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
Friedman, best known to UK and Ireland audiences for his string of chart hits, Lucky Stars, Lydia, Woman of Mine, McDonald’s Girl and “Well, Well,” Said the Rocking Chair’, will be performing solo, on guitar and keyboard, featuring songs from throughout his four-decade career, including familiar, radio hits and fan favorites, drawn from his nine studio albums.
"Soundtrack of our lives!" – NYTimes; "Songsmith extraordinaire!” – MusicWeek; “Dean Friedman is entirely unique and utterly brilliant” – ThreeWeeks; “Stunning Musicianship!” - Hot Press
In addition to the hits and fan favourites, Friedman will be highlighting songs from his latest, critically acclaimed album, ‘American Lullaby’. The crowdfunded album, considered by dedicated fans as one of his finest, touches on a broad range of topics including: the calamitous pandemic, looming environmental disaster, racism, sexism, our fractured politics, and an intractable culture war.
“The new album, ‘American Lullaby’,” Friedman explains, “reflects my personal take on all the crazy stuff that’s been happening in America – and around the world - for the last six years. Like all lullabies, it’s filled with tales of dark deeds and disaster, but couched in soft, gentle tones, meant to soothe and comfort the listener, while gently bracing them for the potential terrors that await.”
Invite family and friends and join Friedman for an evening of powerful, poignant and hilarious songs about the ordinary and extraordinary lives we share.
