BAD PRESS ALBUM / OUT NOW
“An extraordinarily honest, personal, heartfelt, absorbing and hugely likeable slab of sound … transporting us effortlessly to the high-water mark of old school roots reggae, dub and ska evoking the prophetic and soulful sounds of Peter Tosh, Bunny Wailer and Burning Spear. Bob would’ve approved, I think” ALL MUSIC
CAPTAIN ACCIDENT has announced the BAD PRESS ALBUM TOUR – PART 1 for early 2022 in support of his acclaimed fourth album, which was released earlier this year, and includes a special homecoming date at Cardiff Globe on Friday 18 February. The Bad Press Album Tour – Part 2 will follow in the autumn of 2022. The BAD PRESS album is available now on CD and via iTunes, Spotify, Deezer and all other major digital outlets.
To coincide with the tour, the second single from the album, WINGS, which has accumulated repeated plays on BBC Radio 1Xtra, will be released in March as a very limited edition of 100 coloured 7’ singles and 200 black 7” singles on Happy People Records, the highly respected London reggae, rocksteady, soul, and ska label. All singles will be numbered and pressed on the label’s trademark heavyweight vinyl. Pre-order here:
