Jake Bugg plus supporting acts G!RLBAND and Galaxy Thief

About Us

With the announcement of a run of UK dates we’re delighted to welcome British singer, songwriter and musician Jake Bugg to Poole.   

Arguably his most complete and coherent record to date, Saturday Night, Sunday Morning manages to combine a love of ABBA, the Beach Boys, Supertramp and the Bee Gees, with a contemporary pop sound: one that’s already spawned his most ubiquitous song in years via euphoric lead single, All I Need.

“I knew what I was looking for this time around,” the 27-year-old says, firmly. “And I feel like I accomplished it.”

It’s almost 10 years since two-fingered Jake Bugg burst onto the scene with his eponymous debut, one that topped the UK album charts and saw the then 18-year-old from Nottingham fêted as the next Bob Dylan.

His fifth album Saturday Night, Sunday Morning marks the start of chapter two for Jake Bugg.

Despite not having any music released, the band have gained an organic fan-base and reputation playing a plethora of UK festivals this summer including packed big top slots at Bingley and Splendour, as well as a main stage performance at the Isle of Wight Festival. “Three mesmerising voices into one rebellious package. We can’t wait to see what they come up with next.” – LEFT LION

Swanage band Galaxy Thief are set to cap a whirlwind year with a prestigious support slot opening for singer songwriter Jake Bugg at Lighthouse on 11 December.
