  • Our UK tour between the 19th of April and the 5th of May 2022 was one of the highlights of the bands life! Here we have a look behind the scenes at what was involved (for better or worse) in the bands time on tour. Thanks very much to Mike Dennis (check him out below) who opened for us throughout all the shows and all the amazing venue staff and crew who made it possible. Infinite thanks to all who came out to see us and we hope to see you at the next ones.

    I was at the Newcastle gig. I'd forgotten how good live music can be. Thanks guys, it was an amazing night. A special thank you to Andy for humouring me by watching a video of my son singing Beer Is Great

    Seeing you guys in London was my first gig, and my what a gig it was! The personality, the songs, everything was amazing! Even the merch was worth it, although my wallet may never recover ;)

    I was at Newcastle! We went all the way down from Edinburgh because it was sold out, and it was amazing! Shoutout to Robbie for coming in the crowd before the concert and complimenting my hat! (I was in a pirate outfit with a tricorn hat, shirt and a leather vest) super stocked to have met you guys!
    Can't wait to see you live again!

    I was lucky enough to be at both Bristol and Exeter gigs and you were just amazing and the audience too! Although my preference was for Exeter because the bar there sold Devon red cider which is pretty adequate as cider goes!
    Edit...
    Is it possible to get the playlist you play before gigs it's becoming kinda nostalgic:)
