(New York, NY) Yep Roc recording artist Robyn Hitchcock continues his seemingly endless live schedule with the announcement of a wide-ranging array of upcoming dates.  

ROBYN HITCHCOCK, the legendary British artist's acclaimed 21st studio recording and first-ever eponymous release, is available now at all music retailers and streaming services.

North American solo dates were resumed in September, including a two-night stand at Toronto, ON's The Drake (September 21st and 22nd) and two sets at New York's City Winery, one was an all-request set. Additional U.S. dates will have continued in November, with shows already scheduled through February 2018.

Hitchcock recently toured the States with the Psychedelic Furs, and performed at Happy Valley and Pickathon as well as the 2017 Edinburgh International Festival, where he paid homage to "The Music of The Incredible String Band" in an extraordinary tribute concert curated by Joe Boyd and featuring ISB founding member Mike Heron and bassist Danny Thompson.

Hailed by Uncut as "the psych maverick's loudest, liveliest album in decades," ROBYN HITCHCOCK is also available via at the official Yep Roc Store. The album has drawn some of the most ecstatic press notices of Hitchcock's four-decade career. "Witty, moving and seriously catchy," raved Paste, "ROBYN HITCHCOCK is a glorious return for a man who wasn't really gone in the first place." "Astonishing evidence of a creative force that refuses to tamp down," declared A.V. Club. "Four decades as a musician have only deepened, not lessened, Hitchcock's legendary imagination and witty asides as we all trudge through reality." "The bendy mirror through which (Hitchcock) refracts experience offers a sharper view year upon year," noted Record Collector. "If his impishly sardonic persona implies disengagement from reality, even a cursory glance at his lyrics betrays the preoccupations of an individual familiar with the abyss." "As random as a Frenchman's hat," wrote David Quantick in Classic Rock. "Songs like 'Mad Shelley's Letterbox' and the superb '1970 In Aspic' couldn't be written by anyone else. A worthwhile ball to put in his canon." "These 10 gems slither, rock, roll, glide and shapeshift, coalescing around Hitchcock's typically anxious, strained but striking and immediately identifiable vocals," raved American Songwriter. "Hitchcock not only hasn't lost his edge, but has sharpened his knives on this superb set. Newcomers can start here to get a whiff of one of music's most pungent, eccentric and lovable journeymen doing what he does best, knowing they have plenty more to explore from where this came from." PopMatters agreed: "If you're a Robyn Hitchcock fan, this album is an affirmation of his continued skill and talent. If you're a newbie, buy this album and then buy all the others. It's a wonderfully twisted ride."

The album was heralded earlier this year with the acclaimed first single, "I Want To Tell You About What I Want." The track premiered exclusively via NPR Music where it was hailed as "pungently playful... (Hitchcock) sounds renewed, refreshed and irascibly rambunctious." "Hitchcock isn't one to shy away from a political statement," noted Nashville Scene. "In that spirit...('I Want To Tell You About What I Want') shares a little bit of DNA with (The Soft Boys') 'I Wanna Destroy You.'" "Hitchcock's sense of humor shines through the darkness," declared Stereogum.
