Rod Picott

American mainstay Rod Picott returns to the UK this autumn for one last tour. Picott has been touring the UK since his debut album Tiger Tom Dixon's Blues 25 years ago. The award-winning songwriter brings his compelling live show, gritty delivery and keenly observed songs to the UK for his "So Long It's Been Good to Know You" retirement tour. The thrum of insects on a hot August night. A saw blade biting kiln-dried hemlock. The lonesome highway whine of long-haul trucks. A crude swallow of cheap whiskey that tears at your throat. Tears of loss and the easy laughter of old friends. This is the sound of Rod Picott's world. Over twenty-four years, twelve albums, three published books and a few thousand shows Rod Picott has worked; powered by the fuel of the blue-collar world he was born into. The son of a hard working welder and a homemaker, Picott's youth set him on a road of self-reliance and fierce independence that at sixty years still runs through his blood.

Picott is touring his "So Long It's Been Good To Know You" retirement tour. He brings his keenly observed songs, gritty delivery and a compelling live show. The set will feature songs and stories from Picott's quarter-century on the road.
