Beans On Toast Brand new album – ‘Fishing For A Thank You’ – out 1st December 2012.

As is customary every year, Beans On Toast will release his brand new album - ‘Fishing For A Thank You’ - on his birthday 1st December 2012 through Xtra Mile Recordings. 

For this, his fourth studio album, Beans has written a career defining record that, in his own amiable style, deals with such matters as protests, politics, drugs and love with his perfected witty social commentary. Bolstered by an accordion and a backing brass section this is Beans’ most complete and mature sounding record. 

The album release will be preceded by the single ‘Papa Jay’ – a heart-warming ode to growing old and contemplating parenthood. 

You can hear some of the new material when Beans On Toast takes to the road again in December having completed his Oct/Nov schedule:

• Headlined his own incredible show at London’s Scala in September which was recorded for a live album to be released next year.

“His songs are spikey and rough at the edges but are blessed with spice-of-life meaning, winning spirit and warm humour” The Mirror
