Saint Saviour, who releases her latest EP – Anatomy – on March 28th, embarks on a six-date tour of the UK on April 14th.

The shows come on the back of a tour with Hurts – by special invitation from Theo Hutchcraft – and a packed out Borderline show for HMV’s Next Big Thing supporting Claire Maguire.

The first date is a special show at Hoxton Hall on April 14th. In view of recent events in Japan, Saint Saviour wanted to add a fund raising element to the evening. As she explains “I wanted to raise some money and awareness by celebrating all the wonderful things about the country’s history and culture”. To this end Saint Saviour has collaborated with a group of young artists to create an illustrated book of her lyrics, working to a brief that incorporates many Japanese styles from cherry blossom to Japanese Manga movies. The booklet will be available at the show and on Saint Saviours website – www.saintsaviour.co.uk for a minimum donation of £5. All proceeds will go to the British Red Cross for the Tsunami appeal http://www.redcross.org.uk/japantsunami/
