TOM WALKER | GLASGOW O2 ACADEMY 30/04 | REBECCA KILPATRICK

THE MAINE | MANCHESTER NEW CENTURY HALL 25/04 | BELLA PROUDFOOT
One for all our seasoned emo’s last week when Arizona’s The Maine hit the UK for their latest tour dates. The ‘Sweet Sixteen‘ tour follows the release of the bands self titled 9th studio album out last summer which was followed up with the deluxe edition in January.
Playing tracks from across their 16 year career, the crowd revelled in nearly 2 hours worth of fan favourite material. Now that’s how you do a show!
DAVE MATTHEWS BAND | LONDON ROYAL ALBERT HALL 25/04 | MORRIS SHAMAH
On a limited UK tour run, the legendary Dave Matthews Band played two back to back dates at London’s Royal Albert Hall last week. Performing tracks spanning their 30+ year career including songs from their 2023’s ‘Walk Around The Moon‘, it was a delightful trip of old and new for fans who had the privilege of heading along.

SWIM SCHOOL | LONDON HOXTON HALL 22/04 | CHARLIE WRIGHT
“I’m a bit speechless, last time we played in London there were 107 people. We’re not too sure what you’re doing here.” – Alice (Swim School)
Hailing from Edinburgh, Swim School has become one of the most exciting Scottish bands on the indie scene. They’ve made huge festival appearances, released four EPs and joined The Amazons on a recent tour. 2024 is now theirs. This is the year of Swim School. It’s what they’ve been building up to, as they release the Seeing It Now EP and hit the road on their first headline tour.
