Ex-Oceansize frontman and current Biffy Clyro touring guitarist Mike Vennart released his debut solo album titled ‘The Demon Joke’ in June, receiving fantastic reviews along the way. Now following a run of dates earlier this year, Vennart is pleased to announce more headlining shows for this November. They will be at Deaf Institute, Manchester on the 25th November.

Support on all dates comes from psychedelic rockers Knifeworld & noise-rock guitar/drum duo Cleft.

For the live shows, Mike is joined by ex-Oceansize cohorts Steve Durose & Richard ‘Gambler’ Ingram, as well as former Ginger Wildheart drummer Denzel. A live clip for the track ‘Retaliate’ was recently launched, filmed during the short UK headline tour in May, and you can check it out here. German fans can view it here.

An animated video for the stunning single ‘Operate’, created by ChogZoo animation, was also recently released, and you can watch that here. German fans can view it here.

‘Operate’ has also been nominated in the Anthem category at this year’s Progressive Music Awards, and you can vote now here.

‘The Demon Joke’ will be familiar territory to fans of Mike’s old band, but this time with a maturity and optimism lacking in his previous work. The album is a rich, densely layered, emotional psychedelic fuzz-rock odyssey.
