East London musician - JESHI - is heading on a UK headline tour this March, following the release of the deluxe edition of his recent album ‘Universal Credit’.
Kicking off in Nottingham on 15 March, the tour will see stops in Bristol, Glasgow, Leeds, Brighton and Manchester. Tickets are available now here.
Since the release of his critically-acclaimed EP ‘Bad Taste’ in 2020, Jeshi has moved from strength to strength and collaborated with some of the hottest names in music including Celeste, Jim-e Stack, Obongjayar & Vegyn. His music has been included in Chanel’s Cruise show and season 4 of Top Boy, and his continued success saw him pick up a coveted AIM Award for Best Music Video last year.
Having nabbed One To Watch tips from Clash Magazine, British Vogue and Mixmag last year, Jeshi has also gained praise from the likes of The Face, i-D, The Line of Best Fit, The Independent, British GQ, The Fader, DIY, Huck and more.
His blistering debut album ‘Universal Credit’ demanded the attention of critics and fans alike, and the record saw Jeshi hope to bring reality and honesty to how the most ignored and dehumanised in British society are viewed.
Dubbed an “era-defining album” by The Guardian, the artist also released a deluxe edition of the critically-lauded album which featured a brand new track “This Thing Of Ours”, as well as four live performances and a remix of “Protein” featuring Obongjayar & Westside Boogie. Adding to his musical legacy and meeting continued fan demand, listen to the deluxe edition of ‘Universal Credit’ here.
Now ready to tour the album across the UK, Jeshi is ready to hit the road this March. Find full dates and details below.
