Cage The Elephant

Coming Up

 

Stick it up punks; it’s the Fun Lovin’ Criminals! Having enjoyed celebrating the 20th anniversary of their 1996 debut album Come Find Yourself they are about to launch tickets for the Spring 2017 tour. Armed with some killer riffs, a whole load of Tarantino samples and being just so damn cool, original G Huey Morgan and co. are ready to blow you away.

Just announced! Parkway Drive will be making their way to Europe for their Unbreakable tour in April of next year. The news will excite the legions of fans for the Australian metalcore band who will be joined by homegrown talent Asking Alexandria. But if you need your guitar fix a bit sooner pop punks Jimmy Eat World will be hitting the UK in November as will hardrock bands Yashin and Boy Kill Boy.

Commenting on the many incarnations of post punk band The Fall, singer and the one remaining founding member Mark E. Smith once famously said “If it's me and yer granny on bongos, it's The Fall”. Whilst we can’t promise that your granny has secured her place as percussionist in the band we are looking forward to seeing Smith bring some sort of motley crew on stage in January. Keeping with the alternative theme, we are also about to release tickets for the stupendous Kate Nash, LA afropop group Local Natives and rising Leeds legends Clay.

Blending folk with hip hop to create a sound she describes as A-Flop, Lucy Spraggan has released three temedous records including Top Room At The Zoo, Join The Club and We Are. Join her when she tours in March. We also have tickets for trap DJ Baauer.

And we also are about to release tickets for X Factor winner Ben Haenow for spring of next year. That is certainly something you need.

And Finally…

 

Sadly, New York indie trio Augustines have announced their Farewell Tour. Guitarist Billy McCarthy, drummer Rob Allen and multi-instrumentalist Eric Sanderson have release three fantastic albums and toured the world. But it a recent statement issued by the band they concede that financial difficulties have made it too difficult to continue and their October tour will be their last. Do miss out on your last chance to see them!

Having already experienced a very busy year having appeared on Kanye West album The Life Of Pablo and releasing EP There’s A Lot Going On; Chicago rapper Vic Mensa takes it even further by reportedly appearing on the new Gorrillaz album and headlining at cool London club Heaven.

Anyone after alternative electronica needs to give Gigantic a good look. Manchester producer Mr Scruff will be keeping it unreal when he takes over Queens Social Club in Sheffield and turntablist master DJ Yoda is taking his superb mixtape inspired by recent TV horror smash Stranger Things on the road. Also, be sure to check out electro enthused rockers The Ramona Flowers. The Scott Pilgrim influenced Bristol band take cutting edge electronic sounds that ranges from the delicate to the downright dirty.

Math rock extraordinaires Black Peaks have just hit the road to tour material from their newly released record Statues. They will be joined as dual headliners by hardcore band HECK who are known for their insane on/off stage antics who are also promoting a new album; Instructions.

Scottish punk Skids were amongst the first to make a foray into New Wave. First demanding attention when they broke the Top 10 with single Into The Valley and continued to chart highly until their break in 1985. They will be touring in June of 2017 which marks a decade since they returned to the stage. We also have tickets for their post punk contemporaries The Pop Group. The avant-garde agitators will be embarking on a tour this autumn.

And finally, we have tickets for folk rock band Matthew And The Atlas and singer song writer A R Rahman is about to launch his September tour.
