For an album steeped in loss and personal reflection, there are certainly plenty of anthemic chorus to go around and it feels like an exercise in truly exploring the beauty in even the darkest of moments. Featuring three siblings among their five members, Brand New Friend have a closeness which only adds a further richness to the deep meanings sitting behind tracks like ‘Stars Bleed’ and ‘Talk It Out’.
With their live shows being the moments at which their catalogue most flickers into life, we are delighted the band are bouncing back on to UK shores later this week for a headline run. With the gigs certain to showcase the best moments of ‘Grandstand’, alongside the gems sitting amongst their earlier material, we are confident that these dates are not to be missed.
Tickets for all shows are available now and the full tour itinerary is shown below:
October
4th - Exchange, Bristol
