Blossoms announce huge homecoming show at Co-op Live

Blossoms have shared details of their sixth album and their biggest-ever UK headline tour.

The Stockport group, formed of Tom Ogden, Charlie Salt, Josh Dewhurst, Joe Donovan and Myles Kellock, will play Manchester’s Co-op Live on Sat 28 Nov, as well as shows in Cardiff, London, Birmingham and Glasgow.

The band will be joined across all tour dates with very special guests, The Royston Club.

New record, Songs From The Wedding Cake, arrives on Fri 2 Oct via ODD SK /  Distiller Records. The announcement is accompanied by the release of brand new single Meet Me In Love and its music video, directed by Tom and starring Maya Jama and Callum Scott-Howells.

Discussing the new single, Tom says: “Meet Me In Love was written on a songwriting trip to the Lake District with Natalie Findlay and Jules Apollinaire. As often happens, it was the last day and we’d pretty much accepted that there probably weren’t any more songs left to write. We started messing around with a simple two chord disco groove and, within a couple of hours, the whole thing seemed to fall into place.”

“It’s one of those songs that felt exciting from the moment it arrived. I remember driving home from the Lakes listening to the demo on repeat for most of the journey. We later finished the recording with Shawn Lee at Tilehouse Studios, tracking live to tape, but a lot of what made us fall in love with the song in the first place came from that original demo, so plenty of those parts survived onto the final record.”

Fan pre-sale tickets for Blossoms’ UK tour will be available Tue 24 Jun at 9.30am. General sale will follow on Thu 26 Jun at 9.30am.
