Catfish & The Bottlemen have shared Fluctuate from their new album The Balance after it was premiered on Zane Lowe’s Beats 1 show.
“When I’m writing a new song, the audience is all I really see,” Van McCann reveals. “I get a vision of them in my head before I properly hear the melody or anything like that.”
“If we put three or four of these songs in the set, it’s going to be so strong. This run of shows we have coming up is just perfect timing, getting the chance to play new songs that go hand in hand with a wild night out.”
Those run of shows start in Galway and Dublin at the end of April before moving over the Irish Sea for big arena gigs in cities such as Cardiff, Sheffield and Manchester.
