Mr Bruce - November Tour 2022
Midway through his set at Glastonbury Mr Bruce stood in front of a crowd of over a thousand
people and said, “After 15 years of making and performing I finally know what I’m doing”. If you
had a chance to see him in his previous band, The Correspondents, you’d assume he had a
pretty good idea of what to do in front of an audience, but with his new solo project he is going
through a seismic creative shift with the help of his producer Angus Kemp. And when you see
Mr Bruce ‘live’ that change is palpable.
With Producer Angus he is delivering fresh approaches to Tech House, Electro, Jungle and
Garage with a depth and urgency not often seen in UK Dance Music. ‘Where Have You Gone’
(the title track from his next EP released 18th October) is a song about the death of his
bandmate, Chucks, from The Correspondents. It is an extraordinarily powerful lament that
embodies the confusion of love and rage when you lose someone. Mr Bruce has noticed a very
different energy emanating from the audience when he explains the story behind this song and
sings it live. “When the setting is right I find that the show can create a heady cocktail of
sadness and celebration that produces a collective euphoria, kind of like a really fun wake!”
Mr Bruce has taken this live show to over 20 festivals this summer including WOMAD, Secret
Garden Party and Camp Bestival, playing to some of the largest audiences in his career. In
November he embarks on a short UK tour to support the release of his next EP, this may be the
last chance to see him in these intimate venues as Mr Bruce’s rise is looking meteoric.
