Dubstep pioneer Benga kicks off 2012 with his first ever UK and European headline tour, playing 12 UK dates in February and March.

Best known for his work with partner Skream, Benga has recently signed as a solo artist to Columbia Records and is due to release his solo album in Autumn 2012.

First single 'I Will Never Change (wow wow)' will be available as a free download in March, with all the trademark synths and drums you'd expect from one of the biggest players in the genre.
