SKIN –IT TAKES BLOOD AND GUTS

VOCALIST SKIN’S INSPIRATIONAL MEMOIRS AVAILABLE ON PAPERBACK THURSDAY 16TH SEPTEMBER

After celebrating their 25th anniversary in 2019 with the release of the 25LIVE@25 album, British rock icons Skunk Anansie will be touring the UK in 2022. Due to demand an extra show at Oxford O2 Academy has been added for Thursday 16th June. Tickets for the extra date go onsale Friday 17 Sept at 10am here, with tickets for all other dates onsale now.

The last 25 years have seen the band internationally acclaimed as one of the greatest British rock bands of all time, while Skin herself has become one of the world’s most iconic female performers, as well as inspirational role model, activist, trailblazer for women in the music industry, model and muse for designers.

Skin will soon release the paperback version of It Takes Blood And Guts, her very first memoir, co-written by respected journalist and friend Lucy O’Brien.  An alternative narrative to the male dominated, predominantly white Britpop era, the book charts Skin’s unique story from her working class Brixton roots to the Glastonbury and international stage; smashing race and gender stereotypes for over twenty-five years. The book has received rave reviews and the band’s influential status continues to be recognised with a string of awards and renewed media interest around the world.
