Porcupine Tree frontman Steven Wilson has shared an update in a series of tweets, found here. The songwriter and multi-instrumentalist touched upon the band’s touring plans while sharing a year-end message in which he outlined some of his upcoming activities.
“Happy new year to you all!
First and foremost a big thank you to everyone that enjoyed the Porcupine Tree Closure/Continuation album / shows, and my book, Limited Edition Of One, during the past year. Coming in 2023 will be my new album, a 10 track, 65 minute musical journey that’s kinda hard to describe, but suffice to say it’s different again, not to mention totally pretentious (in a good way!). It will be released by Virgin Music UK, more news soon. Meanwhile, the (likely final) PorcupineTree shows will be a handful of festival appearances over the summer, check the band’s channels for more info.
Lots more exciting stuff (at least to me) happening, but for now I’ll leave you with my very best wishes for the year ahead, I hope it will be a wonderful one for you.”
PORCUPINE TREE — Wilson, keyboardist Richard Barbieri and drummer Gavin Harrison — recently embarked on a wide-ranging world tour, the band’s first since October 2010. The group was touring in support of its eleventh studio album, “Closure / Continuation”, which came out in June via Music For Nations/Megaforce Records.
