UK’s rising alt-pop four-piece Only The Poets share new single “One More Night” and they announce a June UK tour…
The release follows a stellar year for the Reading band, having played to 20,000 people across 50 shows in 10 different countries, racked up 10 million streams on Spotify and 150k Shazams worldwide – selling out their UK headline tour [which culminated in an epic gig at Shepherd’s Bush Empire.]
Due to demand, the band then also played a small ‘Homecoming’ tour, taking in Glasgow, Newcastle, Leeds, Manchester, Bristol and London – all dates sold out. At the festivals, the band drew the biggest set at the BBC Introducing stage at Reading Festival following ongoing BBC Radio 1 support.
Singer Tommy Longhurst, bassist Andy “Roo” Burge, guitarist Clem Cherry and drummer Marcus Yates have established themselves in just a few short years as one of the UK’s biggest emerging live acts.
Unsigned until the beginning of 2023, the band’s DIY ethos saw them build things from the ground up, from playing student house parties, pub circuits and small venues to selling out 1,600-capacity venues in the UK and across Europe.
Alongside releasing their heartbreak anthem “Looking At You” back in September last year, the band also announced a massive run of 2024 dates for their ‘One More Night’ European tour.
Kicking off in Paris on the 6th February 2024, the 22-date tour will see the band play in venues across the continent including Milan, Krakow, Berlin, Prague, Oslo and Krakow, ending in Lille on the 11th April. [See the UK tour dates., below].
