The Sherlocks Celebrate 10 Years With Headline Show And New Single

Next Friday will see The Sherlocks celebrate the 10th anniversary of their first ever release by playing a special 7,500-capacity homecoming show at Sheffield’s Don Valley Bowl. Building towards what will surely be an unforgettable occasion for the band and their fans alike and to whet appetites, the band have shared brand new single Death Of Me.

The Sherlocks

The Sherlocks (Nathan Kobierowsky)

Death Of Me is a twist on The Sherlocks’ sound, their flair for anthemic larger-than-life hooks, feelgood vibes and energetic escapism now leaning into synth-rock territory without losing any of their dynamic spark. Lyrically it’s perfectly circular for this moment in time – their first demo release in 2014 celebrated the rush of being able to Live For The Moment and that idea is explored again here, albeit from the perspective of adult life rather than the naivety of youth. The track was produced by David Radahd-Jones.

Vocalist/guitarist Kiaran Crook says: “This feels like the freshest thing we’ve done in a while in the sense that we know we can write and record rock ‘n’ roll tunes no problem, and don’t get me wrong we love doing that! But this song came about and immediately felt different, almost like it wasn’t crying out for guitars quite as much. We gave the song a minimalistic approach in many ways and I think it ended up sounding like nothing we’ve done before because of that.”

Drummer Brandon Crook adds: “This song is a pure sing-a-long anthem, made for the big outdoor gigs and festivals. We feel like we’ve taken another huge leap forward sonically. The whole tune feels youthful and uplifting. Can’t wait to play this one live for everyone!”

A postcard recap of The Sherlocks’ journey to this moment: brothers Kiaran and Brandon Crook formed the band in Bolton upon Dearne in South Yorkshire, and their early buzz saw them become the first unsigned band to sell-out Sheffield’s Leadmill since Arctic Monkeys. Their rise was cemented with shows with Liam Gallagher, Kaiser Chiefs and The Libertines while their debut album, Live For The Moment, debuted at #6.

The band’s line-up evolved after their second set, Under The Sky, with the addition of Alex Procter (guitar) and Trent Jackson (bass). Their resurgence was fired up in 2021 as they returned to the Top 10 with World I Understand before last year’s People Like You & Me was confirmed as their most acclaimed and highest charting album to date with a #4 chart position.

Now The Sherlocks are set to celebrate all they have achieved and everything to come by fulfilling their dream to headline Don Valley Bowl. Featuring a strong support line-up – Red Rum Club, The Clause, Apollo Junction and The Lilacs.

The Sherlocks’ touring schedule for 2024 includes select festival dates and three outdoor shows in Germany as guests to Keane before they spend much of November and December touring as special guests on Shed Seven’s 30th anniversary tour. Their upcoming UK tour dates are:

Wyatt Flores Brings Honest Heart And Sharp Style To London’s Roundhouse

On a crisp October night at London’s Roundhouse, Wyatt Flores stepped onto the stage to a roaring crowd, his name echoing around the vaulted room with a force that surprised even him. Supporting 49 Winchester on their UK run, the Oklahoma-born singer-songwriter might technically have been the opener, but from the reaction that greeted him, it was clear many had come just as much for Wyatt.

Virginia’s 49 Winchester transformed Camden’s Roundhouse into a celebration of straight-from-the-heart Americana.

Echobelly Bring ON To Life At The Electric Ballroom – A Triumphant Celebration Of Britpop’s Enduring Spirit

It’s been three decades since Echobelly released ON, the Britpop-era gem that cemented them as one of the most vital and distinctive voices of the mid-90s. On Thursday night at London’s Electric Ballroom, the band — fronted by the magnetic Sonya Madan and founding guitarist Glenn Johansson — returned to Camden to celebrate that legacy, playing the album in full to a sold-out crowd that sang, swayed, and grinned their way through one of the most joyous nostalgia trips of the year.

Not Naïve – The Kooks Are Always Where They Need To Be At London’s O2 Arena

Brighton Indie Pop darlings The Kooks played quite possibly the biggest and best show of their 20 year career at The O2 Arena on Saturday night. A night of nostalgia, of celebration and of cementing themselves as one of the best British bands formed in the 21st century.

New Found Glory Never Miss, Only Hit At O2 Academy Birmingham

There’s something about a New Found Glory show that feels like coming home. No matter how many years have passed or how much life has changed, when those opening chords hit, you’re right back where it all started — shouting lyrics with your friends, sweaty, smiling, and completely lost in the moment.
