Following the band’s sensational performance at Download Festival at the weekend, The Struts will be returning to the UK and Europe at the end of September for a run of dates, entitled The Grand Union Tour, with British singer Barns Courtney, who has been appearing as the Special Guest on their mammoth ‘Pretty Vicious’ US headline tour.
Lead singer Luke Spiller says, “We are really looking forward to getting back out and bringing our best show to date alongside our longterm friend and partner in rock, Barns Courtney. It truly is going to be the hottest ticket in town.”
British Rock band, The Struts – named from an offhand comment about their unbridled stage presence – have earned a global reputation as a must-see live act. The band, comprised of lead vocalist Luke Spiller, guitarist Adam Slack, bassist Jed Elliott, and drummer Gethin Davies, formed in Derby England in 2012.
Bursting onto the scene with 'Could Have Been Me', they went on to release three albums (including collaborations with heavy hitters such as Robbie Williams, Kesha, Tom Morello, and Def Leppard’s Joe Elliott and Phil Collen), earned the No.1 spot on the Spotify Viral Top 50, appeared on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and Jimmy Kimmel Live!, garnered more than 850 million on-demand streams and sold out shows across the globe.
Praised for their onstage swagger and musicianship, they have opened for The Rolling Stones, Foo Fighters and Guns N’ Roses, played major festivals including Lollapalooza and Governors Ball, and headlined their own world-wide tours. After signing with Big Machine Label Group, the mesmerizing rockers released the anthemic single, 'Fallin’ With Me' in late 2022.
