James Marsters will tour the UK in 2005.

Delighted with the response to his live set at the UK event this year, James Marsters is about to embark on his first solo tour.

James has been working flat out on his new album and will perform his new material at a string of dates in the UK in 2005.

The acoustic tour begins with a date at the legendary Cavern Club in Liverpool on Friday 22 April.

He will also be appearing at the Carling Academy Islington on Friday 29 April.

Of his new mellow sound he said, "I've been listening to Joni Mitchell, Dylan, people like that. I'm aiming high."
