Crime & the City Solution have shared a new acoustic version of “The Bride Ship” ahead of their Acoustic European Tour dates for November and December 2024. The three-piece acoustic iteration features Bronwyn Adams (violin and vocals), Simon Bonney (vocals) and Joshua Murphy (acoustic guitar and vocals) and they are presenting various acoustic versions from the Crime catalogue.

They have released an acoustic version of 1989’s “The Bride Ship”, alongside a performance video.

Born of “a want to play the material in the style that many of the songs were first written”, and “to create an intimate atmosphere that captures the simple joy of friends playing together for friends,” the Acoustic tour will see Adams, Bonney and Murphy travel from Graz on November 27th on an 11-date tour that finishes in Berlin, home of the latest incarnation of Crime.

Individual live shows will also feature separate solo sets by Bronwyn Adams and/or Joshua Murphy.

Crime & the City Solution recently announced a book of selected lyrics, Love In A Time Of Violence, out now via Heartworm Press.
