We’ve seen a lot of posts today from musicians talking about how tough things are right now — undersold tours, cancelled shows, albums struggling to land. It really does feel like uncertain times across the whole industry.
Even our own upcoming tour hasn’t escaped it. Two of our venues have closed their doors, meaning our Manchester show has moved to the Deaf Institute after the sad closure of 33 Oldham Street, and our Edinburgh date is now at Sneaky Pete’s after Legends was turned into something else entirely.
Times are hard. We feel it too.
Everyone has less money, and the world feels stranger by the week.
But this is exactly why the grassroots scene matters more than ever. Independent venues and promoters are the ones taking real risks — the people running the door themselves, hoping 50 tickets sold is enough to break even. The £9‑a‑pint arenas will be fine. It’s the independent rooms, the passionate teams, and the bands on the road who need the support.
We know how lucky we are to get to do this.
We love touring. We love seeing you there.
One day it’ll all be over — time moves fast.
So here’s the call to arms: if you can, show up. Support the bands you love. Back the venues that keep live music alive. Pack out the rooms, sing the words, and stand so close you end up blocking the singer’s feet with your pint on the edge of the stage.
Grassroots music survives when we all decide it matters. Our tour is on sale now, and so are a lot of others. Support the scene 💛 🤘
