Levellers - Letters From The Underground - UK Tour Dates 08

Brighton based folk-punk band, the Levellers, release Letters from the Underground - their most politically resonant album in a decade and have just announced the dates for their UK tour.

Musically and lyrically the album conveys a passion, energy and conviction that shot the band to fame in their early years. Letters from the Underground was recorded in the Levellers own Metway studios in Brighton and is being released on their own label - On the Fiddle.

The Levellers have seen a renaissance with their live career in recent years. 2008 sees them airing the new songs and old favourites from their hit-rich back catalogue.
