Nerina Pallot is on the road promoting her new ‘Lonely Valentine Club EP’, playing seven UK dates throughout February.

Starting off at the Arlington Arts Centre on Feb 8th, Nerina Pallot will be closing her tour at the Birmingham Glee Club on Feb 17th.

On Valentine’s Day itself, Pallot will be playing at the Edinburgh Pleasance Theatre.

Known for her live solo shows, online performances, Russell Brand immunity and self described ‘exquisitely crafted pop’, Nerina Pallot has built up a solid following since 2001. Pallot’s ‘Lonely Valentine Club EP’ is the singer/songwriter’s first release since January 2012.

Featuring five original tracks, alongside a cover of Ce Ce Peniston’s ‘Finally’, the ‘Lonely Valentine Club EP’ will be primarily available as a digital download, via the usual online outlets and Pallot’s own website – http://www.nerinapallot.com

Limited edition hard copies can also be bought throughout the Lonely Valentine Club tour.

Pallot is also reportedly working on her 5th studio album, planned for release later in 2013

Born in Jersey, Nerina Pallot started playing the piano as a child; reportedly writing her first composition by the age of 13. An accomplished musician, Pallot also plays the guitar and sings with significant range.

Releasing her first album, ‘Dear Frustrated Superstar’, on Polydor in 2001, Nerina Pallot broke with the label over publicly made comments about her A&R. Self releasing her second album, ‘Fires’, in 2005, Pallot achieved her highest chart position with the LP’s first single, ‘Everybody’s Gone to War’.

The album’s second single, ‘Sophia’ – released in Oct 2006, was nominated for the Best Song category at the Ivor Novello Awards.

Along with a publishing deal from Chrysalis, Nerina Pallot continued to self release material on her own label, Idaho – with her 3rd album, ‘The Graduate’, coming out in 2009.

Six years later, however, Pallot returned to the majors; releasing her 4th studio album – ‘Year of the Wolf’, on Geffen Records in June 2011
