The master American singer-songwriter known for his hits such as Me and Bobby McGee, For the Good Times, Sunday Mornin Comin Down, and Help Me Make It Through the Night returns to the essentials of his finely honed craft in a performance that showcases his most recent, highly anticipated album Closer to the Bone.

Like his 2006 album This Old Road, Kristofferson's new album is produced by Grammy Award winner Don Was and has been hailed as a sequel to its much-acclaimed predecessor. Following his previous collection, cited by Rolling Stone as ‘one of the finest albums of his storied career’, his new offering is a deftly observed, honestly executed work about love, separation, loss, and mortality, with subject matter that ranges from the musician’s family to Kristofferson’s late friend Johnny Cash.

'[Kristofferson] held a London audience completely spellbound by the magical power of an open spirit and truly great songs.'
