Dreamstress of wonder Alessi’s Ark has embarked upon an epic tour of the British Isles in a bid to spread her web of wonder far and wide.  Her travels will take in an eclectic range of venues including instores and one very special gig at a farmhouse which was once a haunt of the Bloomsbury group.  She’ll be joining the likes of Sons of Noel and Adrian, Peggy Sue and the Leisure Society for this one.  Details here.

Alessi will also be appearing on a session for Marc Riley on 6Music at 8pm on the 12th of May, and at various summer festivals.  Her album, Notes from the Treehouse, which is reviewed here is available from Rough Trade with a special four track bonus EP.

Still-to-come tour dates are as follows:

Cardiff (22/05),

Bristol (23/05),

Nottingham (24/05)

London (Luminaire) (28/05)
