About Catfish and the Bottlemen
The most exciting new guitar band to burst through in the UK is Catfish and the Bottlemen, comprised of Van McCann (vocals, guitars), Johnny Bond (guitars), Robert "Bob" Hall (drums) and Benji Blakeway (bass). Originating on the North Wales Coast, the alt rockers are practically of no fixed abode due to the constant touring.
Their debut album is 2014's The Balcony, written by charismatic frontman Van McCann. Catfish and the Bottlemen were awarded Best Newcomer at the 2014 BBC Music Awards. The band released their second album, The Ride, in 2016, with a third album, The Balance, released in April 2019, which has added a whole raft of exciting new material to their already highly charged live set.
In 2019 Catfish and the Bottlemen not only did three arena tours of the UK, but they also did five tours of the United State as well as ours of Australia and mainland Europe.
They recently announced their biggest Welsh show to date, and their only show in Wales in 2020, at Swansea’s Singleton Park. This follows their sell-out shows at both Cardiff Castle and Motorpoint Arena in the past 18 months.
