The Passport: Back to Our Roots intimate show series launched last year have announced show dates for Metronomy, KT Tunstall and more for later this year.

Last year a series of intimate one-off shows at grassroots music venues across the country were announced, but no dates were announced for the shows due to the coronavirus pandemic and uncertainty surrounding the restrictions.

Today (5 May), dates for Passport: Back to Our Roots shows for Metronomy, KT Tunstall, Slow Readers Club and Elbow have been unveiled.

Metronomy will play Brighton's Patterns on 9 November, while KT Tunstall will perform at PJ Molloys in Dunfermline on 21 October. Slow Readers Club will play The Trades Club in Hebden Bridge on 19 September, and Elbow will perform at Night & Day Cafe in Manchester on 23 November.
