BRITISH actor-turned-musician Damian Lewis has embarked on a tour ahead of the release of a new album - and he will be stopping off in Stroud this weekend. 

The 52-year-old London-born actor, who starred in the TV series Homeland and 2019 comedy film Once Upon A Time… In Hollywood, has turned his hand to music in recent years.

He released his debut album Mission Creep last year and is embarking on a new set of tour dates, which started with a show in East Sussex at the Trading Boundaries on Friday March 8.

He performs at the Sub Rooms in Stroud on Sunday, March 24. 

Lewis’s eight-date tour includes shows at Southend’s Palace Theatre, Watford’s Palace Theatre, Oxford’s Academy 2, Stroud’s The Sub Rooms, Lighthouse Poole, Norwich’s Epic Studios and The Junction in Cambridge.

The actor toured the UK following the release of his debut album in June and has played at festivals including Wilderness in Oxfordshire and Black Deer Festival in Kent.
