SCOTTISH singer, songwriter and ex-Marillion frontman Fish has announced a handful of UK shows this Spring, including Salisbury City Hall on Saturday, April 30.

He will play Marillion’s 1985 chart-topping album Misplaced Childhood in full for the very last time, ahead of releasing his final-ever album later this year.

The ‘Farewell To Childhood’ tour started in Sweden in June 2015 and marks the 30th anniversary of Marillion’s career-defining, multi-platinum selling third album, which spawned the hit singles ‘Kayleigh’, ‘Lavender’ and ‘Heart Of Lothian’, and follows the release of the most recent solo album from Fish  A Feast Of Consequences.

A Feast Of Consequences was hugely acclaimed by critics and prompted Fish to reflect on his greatly influential time in music during the sold-out headline tour that surrounded its release.

He came to the conclusion that he would retire from music to pursue other projects – but not without revisiting his most famous work, and creating one final album, which will be released later this year before he finally hangs up his microphone.

“I started to consider my future and I came to the decision it was time for a major change in my life,” he said.

“A plan was required that fulfilled all my needs and desires and gave me an exit strategy where I could have fun and give the fans of my music a celebration rather than a wake.”
