The singer songwriter will headline St Matthew’s Church in Northampton on Saturday, December 18 and tickets are on sale now.

Speaking on his social channels about next month’s gig, he said: “There’s no better way to finish a full UK tour than coming back to my hometown Northampton for a headline Christmas show in the stunning church I grew up next to.

“I’m talking candles, mulled wine, mince pies, Christmas tree, Santa outfit, lots of laughs, a snow confetti gun, reindeer - we’re going all out for this one.”

Lockett has recently been on tour across the UK supporting Lucy Spraggan and played a headline gig at London’s Omeara.

He released his latest EP Reflections earlier this year – with an acoustic version following.
