Legendary space rockers Hawkwind have announced a nationwide UK tour in December in support of their brand new studio album, 'Blood Of The Earth'.
'Blood Of The Earth' is Hawkwind's first new studio album since 'Take Me To Your Future' in 2005. The album is comprised of brand new Hawkwind tracks alongside the first ever studio recording of 1974's 'You'd Better Believe It' and a new 2010 version of Dave Brock's 1984 solo release 'Sweet Obsession'.
Joining them on the tour are Liverpool's own classic hard rock band 'The Jokers'. Fronted by showman Wane Parry, The Jokers deliver a heavy, catchy sound coupled with a lot of high energy swagger.
