The Gulls Drop New Single Life Goes On To Kick Off A Break Out Year

by | Jan 25, 2025

The Gulls are a band we really love here at RockShot; and it’s not just for their music, an electrifying blend of rock, funk, minstrel folk, and psychedelia. We also love their ethos.

The band (Will Fairhead, bass and vocals/Kilian Aubertin, guitar/Tali Knight, drums) live permanently on the road and are known for their stunt performances. If you happen to be strolling down Camden High Street and a rock ‘n’ roll band drives past on an open sided trailer, there’s a better than average chance it’s The Gulls.

If you’re at Stonehenge and/or Glastonbury Tor on the solstice and a rock ‘n’ roll band turns up for an impromptu gig, there’s a better than average chance it’s The Gulls.

But what we really love about the band is their annual Robin Hood Tour performing free open-air gigs in iconic places to raise money for The Trussell Trust (UK food banks).

The Gulls have just released their newest single, Life Goes On. Written during a challenging winter, the song serves as a resilient anthem, reminding listeners to keep pushing forward. It’s both a message of hope and a call to fuel dreams, no matter the obstacles.

Last year, the band played major UK festivals (Boomtown, Victorious, Beautiful Days), joined Kula Shaker on tour, and headlined their own sold-out UK & Ireland tour.

2025 looks to be a breakout year for The Gulls. There is an upcoming album, Lavender and Tobacco, set to be released on vinyl in April, a UK and Ireland tour planned with the Buena Vista Orchestra, plus plans for an American tour with SSK Records.
