KT Tunstall announces 2023 UK tour including Newcastle date - how to get tickets and full list of tour dates

BRIT award winner KT Tunstall is to soon embark on a UK tour, performing a total of 16 shows in the UK with Gateshead one of the scheduled dates.

The songstress, who has also been nominated for a Grammy Award, will be touring her upcoming album ‘NUT’, which is set to be released on all major streaming platforms on 9 September.

NUT is the product of a project spanning seven years. Tunstall says: "It’s the final part of a trilogy of records that has spanned probably the most extreme and profound period of change in my life. The personal arc of these three records has been pretty extraordinary for me.”

The name of the album can be considered niche, but Tunstall explains the reasoning behind why the album’s name: KT explains the inspiration behind the album’s name: “Growing up in Scotland, if someone was losing their temper you would say, ‘Dinny lose yer Nut!’ I love that the word also means a seed.

“The album artwork is all about the brain being a garden; you reap what you sow, you need to keep the weeds at bay, and there is an almost supernatural beauty to when things blossom.”
