Nottingham indie rock icon Jake Bugg has announced details of his fifth studio album ‘Saturday Night, Sunday Morning’ and a headline UK tour for spring 2022.

Boasting the Absolute Radio playlisted anthem ‘All I Need’, 2019 single ‘Kiss Like The Sun’ and the tracks ‘Rabbit Hole’ and ‘Saviours’, ‘Saturday Night, Sunday Morning’ will be released via RCA Records on Friday 20th August 2021.

It’s Jake Bugg’s follow-up record to September 2017’s ‘Hearts That Strain’ and his first full album on the RCA Records imprint.

In a short statement, Jakes says ‘Saturday Night, Sunday Morning’ is “the most fun I’ve ever had making a record.”
