The Twilight Sad add Edinburgh gig to November UK tour

A date at London’s O2 Forum in November was set to be the biggest headline show of The Twilight Sad‘s career so far; now a gig scheduled a week later in Edinburgh has taken that title.

The Usher Hall in Edinburgh is to host the band on November 30th, coming after the aforementioned London outing on November 23rd and a trip to the Ritz in Manchester a day later.

These support the Sad’s 2019 album It Won/t Be Like This All The Time; the result of a ‘Field Of Dreams style catharsis’ for singer James Graham according to Live4ever’s review, presenting ‘a vision of a Twilight Sad no longer constrained by its previously narrow horizons’:

“Drawing on a fresh intent to discover their own version of ‘Hugeness’, it continues, “It Won/t Be Like This All The Time is a brave attempt at making a connection with a far broader audience than that of their past.”

“Mass consumption is a double-edged sword to be sure; the gift of being on a plane many can identify with whilst still retaining an aura of mystique is one their mentors have practiced from The Top onwards.”
