JIM BOB is going back to his Day Job TOUR! |

Sunday, January 29 2012

 Jim Bob is going on tour. He'll be performing everybody's favourite CARTER USM and Jim Bob songs and also reading (out loud) from his new novel DRIVING JARVIS HAM - published by The Friday Project (Harper Collins) on May10
Here is the first chunk of dates. Those TBAs you can spot should be filled this time next week we will then have a complete tour. I would book up as soon as you can as our smallest venues hold less than a 100, and bigger venues such as London are only 300. This is so you can really enjoy both the tunes and the readings from Jims ace book in some lovely intimate settings. It does of course mean some shows will sell out.

Jim Bob's second novel DRIVING JARVIS HAM will be published by The Friday Project on 10th May 2012. The first edition of the book will be a lovely hardback and will be followed later by a paperback, an e-book and an audio book.
The hardback edition will come with a coded link to a four song (all new) Jim Bob download EP Day Job. The subject matter(s) of the EP's songs is unconnected to the book and at least one of them is called 'The Tesco Riots'.
DRIVING JARVIS HAM will be in all the shops and available on all the Internet. Jim plan to win a prize with it. Theyre going to have to bring back The South Bank Show.
Heres what Jim Bob's publisher says about the book.
DRIVING JARVIS HAM by Jim Bob
"A friend reflects on life with Jarvis Ham: tea-room assistant, diarist, lift-cadger, Princess Di fan, secret alcoholic, relentless seeker of fame, and all-round irritant. The novel is for anyone who has ever found themselves looking across at a childhood friend, and wondering why they still know them. Everyone here who has read Jim Bob's book has pissed themselves laughing. It is very funny, but very, very dark. We look forward to unleashing Jim on the festivals and bookshops of our nation this summer."
Basically, its the best book ever written. Youd be mad not to buy it.
Jim Bob will be touring the UK from the end of May, singing both solo and Carter songs and reading from the new novel tour dates soon. There will also be various live events and signings in bookshops.
Look out for more news on the book and all the accompanying activity soon.

Thank you to everyone who came along and made the recent Carter shows such a great success.
Next up for Jim Bob (me) are a couple of appearances at the Bloomsbury Theatre for 9 Lessons & Carols for Godless People. All tickets sold out now I'm afraid.
There should be an announcement soon about my new novel what it's called and what it's about and when you can buy ten copies etc.
Look out for the Team Jim Bob round up of the year at some point soon.
