The Shimmer Band playing This Feeling’s Big In 2017 at Nambucca, London (Alberto Pezzali for Live4ever)
The Shimmer Band will undertake their own headline tour of the UK in April after a stint supporting Cabbage this month.
The tour is live in Leeds on April 12th and from there visits Glasgow, Newcastle, Birmingham, Manchester and Bristol ahead of the closing night at Camden Assembly in London on April 28th.
The Shimmer Band are getting into 2017 with these live dates and their latest single Jacknife and The Death Call after Live4ever made Sunkick one of our tracks of last year:
“Flattery get you everywhere, or at least leaping on the spot to a tune as spiked with festival zeitgeist as this. But seeing as that season is over, you’ll have to make do with catching the Bristolians at a gig and hope that they can fit that colossal-sounding choir at the end of the song on stage.”
“For a band not quite under the starlight yet, they know how to pull out a lot of stops.”
