Essex trio Bilk have announced they will tour the UK in Spring 2025.

Alongside their tour announcement, the band has announced the release of their new album ‘Essex, Drugs and Rock and Roll’, due for release on January 24th via Scruff of the Neck.

Speaking of the album, frontman Sol Abrahams said: “The album sums up where I’m at in my life at the moment which is everything from being in a band to partying, relationships, love, drugs, sex and a load of stories and experiences I’ve picked up and written about along the way. I think it’s the most exciting thing about in band music right now.”
