Meanwhile, the band recently returned with new single ‘Love Will Get You There’ and details of their anticipated second album ‘Cuts & Bruises’.

Their Tony Genn-produced second album, the follow-up to critically-acclaimed chart-topping debut ‘It Won’t Always Be Like This’, will arrive on February 17, 2023.

In a four-star review, NME described their debut LP as being “full of defiance, optimism and plenty of guitars”.

“[It’s] teeming with nervous energy over trying to find balance in a world turned inside out, while flashes of more mature reflections on saints, sinners, kings and dreams are also promising.”

The band also previously supported the Arctic Monkeys earlier this summer.

Recalling the moment they were told about supporting the Sheffield band to NME, bassist Robert Keating called the news “surreal”.

“We found out about that in November [2021] when we were in America, one of our managers was just like, ‘You’re going to support Arctic Monkeys in August’, and we were just like, ‘Yeah but we’re not, are we?'” Keating said.

“We just didn’t really believe it because we grew up listening to them and loving their music and the fact we actually get to tick that off the bucket list is still kind of surreal. We’re not really believing that it’s actually going to happen.”
