The singer songwriter will play dates in Bristol, Birmingham, London, Nottingham, Manchester and Glasgow in January 2015 with a full band, following the release of her debut EP next month.
Bethan Mary Leadley announced the news in a video uploaded to her channel yesterday. In it she said: “I really hope you guys come along to this tour because I have literally been working my butt off so hard music wise this year, and I also really just wanna give you guys the best show possible.”
“I also get to meet all of you,” she continued, ” because it’s not often I get to go up and down the country meeting a bunch of you, and you know what let’s just make this a really really cool thing. I love you guys so much and thank you so much for your amazing continuous support, and I’ll be seeing you in a place near you in January.”
