Consistently striking a chord with their fans there’s no denying FALL OUT BOY’s status as one of the most recognised and loved rock acts of recent years. The new album American Beauty/American Psycho was released this month and stormed in at #1 on the Billboard Album Charts with Rolling Stone dubbing it “the group’s biggest, broadest, most unabashed pop smorgasbord yet.”
The Illinois natives also know how to produce a powerhouse show and have the crowd in the palm of their hand – no matter how big the venue is. The bands show at Islington Assembly Hall in London earlier this month had Gigwise raving: “There’s no denying, even in an intimate venue, FOB can deliver a powerful tune.”
Formed in 2007 in Glasgow and infusing their music with their Scottish heritage, TWIN ATLANTIC rapidly found themselves caught in a whirlwind of support slots with the great and the good; from Blink-182 to My Chemical Romance , The Gaslight Anthem, Biffy Clyro, The Smashing Pumpkins and many more! The band toured the length and breadth of Britain, Europe and America over the last 7 years wowing audiences with every show!
“ …. – these boys are going to be huge.” – www.gq-magazine.co.uk
EMILY’S ARMY draw a diverse adoration of music and an eclectic mix of influences ranging from the Beach Boys to the Ramones to create their own brand of Rock and Roll, fondly known as Beach Pop. “EMILY’S ARMY have their own sound that brings a new spin on those old school pop punk elements.” – Hit The Floor
Formed in Oakland, California when young brothers Max and Cole Becker started a band with their everlasting best friend Joey Armstrong to play the kind of music they heard in the movie School of Rock, around their houses, and in the area that they were growing up in. Since then the boys have been playing donut shops, bowling alleys, and fetid dive clubs across the world playing their music for anyone who will listen. “…their performance was energetic and passionate and their songs executed to a much more mature level. They are definitely ones to watch.” – Alt Sounds
