Freckfest presents Chris Helme

Chris Helme, frontman of John Squire's post-Stone Roses band The Seahorses and acclaimed solo artist, is set to bring a collection of brand-new material to audiences for the first time in a decade, as he tours his latest album, World of my Own, taking in venues and festivals across the UK.

Chris will play his new album – largely for the first time live – alongside numbers from The Seahorses’ seminal album which earned them an outpouring of adoration around the world. With earworm tunes running through your head long after you first hear them, it seems Chris’ new songs look set to become just as beloved as the old ones. September 2024 brings the release of a new single ‘Hangin’ Out’ which was recorded during the making of World of my Own. This is followed by an album called ‘Sunrise 545’ which revolves around the segues which sew the tracks of the album together. These were all composed by Jon Hargreaves, a long-time collaborator of Helme. The album features an alternate ending to the album which has not been heard before.
