The lead singer and drummer of notable British rock band Ocean Colour Scene are hitting the road for a nationwide acoustic tour, stopping off in Lincolnshire along the way.
Ocean Colour Scene were one of the most prominent bands of the UK rock scene in the 1990s, with three top five albums and 17 top 40 singles, including legendary hits The Riverboat Song and The Day We Caught The Train.
The band performed to sell out crowds all over the country during their tour last year, and now lead singer Simon Fowler and drummer Oscar Harrison have announced they will be doing some stripped back acoustic sessions at intimate seated venues across the UK in 2022.
Billed as An Evening with Simon and Oscar of Ocean Colour Scene, the 25-date tour begins in Dundee on April 29 and will come to Stamford’s Corn Exchange on May 7, the day after the pair perform at The Palace in Newark.
Speaking about doing the acoustic shows, lead singer Simon said the performances would be: “A real tonic – a great chance to look the audience in the eye and interact with them on a more personal basis than ever before”.
Tickets are available directly from the venue box offices, as well as online service Ticketmaster.

Schools and universities in Lincolnshire recognise the potential benefits, but also the concerns, over the use of artificial intelligence.
The results of the government’s first ever Call for Evidence on Artificial Intelligence in Education’ report were published on Tuesday, November 28. It was open for 10 weeks and closed on August 23 this year, with 567 responses received during that time. Most respondents were “broadly optimistic” about the use of GenAI in education.
Almost two months on from Network Rail stating it had implemented “new cleaning regimes” for its railway bridge on Brayford Wharf East, the same concerns of graffiti, dirt and moss growth are continuing — and we are no clearer on how regularly the bridge is cleaned.
The bridge, which opened in 2019 in a bid to improve public safety on the railway crossing, is regularly used by many commuters and residents in Lincoln, but it has been the topic of a cleanliness discussion for many months now.
