The Blinders playing Neighbourhood Weekender 2018 (Gary Mather for Live4ever)
The Blinders have revisited Brave New World in preparation for the release of their debut album Columbia on September 21st.
There’s an extensive UK tour booked to start the next month in Manchester, one which will take the band to cities such as Leeds, Aberdeen, Cambridge and Bristol by mid-November.
“Welcome to Columbia,” they’ve said of the album. “We invite you to open the gates to this new world and indulge in drudgery under absolute autocracy, served to you on a plastic tray.”
“Johnny Dream skulks the streets as the factories fabricate their meat. The powers that be call for his head. Daddy told me it’s us and them.”
