Kings Of Leon

Kings Of Leon will perform at St. James’ Park on Saturday 31st May 2014, headlining a show at the home of Newcastle United Football Club.

The band released their sixth studio album ‘Mechanical Bull‘ on September 23rd, and will now be looking to impress the masses on May 31st 2014 when they perform alongside some very special guests at Newcastle’s famous football stadium.

Newcastle United members and season ticket holders will receive priority booking for the show and are able to purchase tickets a day before anyone else from 9am on Wednesday 18th December 2013, and the tickets will then go on general sale from 9am on Thursday 19th December 2013, with general admission tickets available from See Tickets at a price of £55 each.

Kings Of Leon’s music is no doubt absolutely perfect for filling stadiums of this sort, and if you’d like to find out further information about this fantastic headline show then more information can be found at the Official Newcastle United website.

Giants and Turn And Run European Tour

Giants and Turn And Run will be hitting Europe in March, taking in Belgium, Germany and Holland for five tour dates across the continent, full details of which can be found above.

Giants are currently in the studio demoing material for a new studio album that’s due to drop next year, and Turn And Run’s ‘Blossom‘ EP is currently up for grabs as a part of a mega competition that’s running over on Dead Press right now.

Giants guitarist Jack Longman had the following to say about life on the road in Europe.

On our first ever headline European run that we did in September, everyday was crazy. It was actually quite a hard tour, loads of the shows were last minute and most of the drives were real long, but it was worth it.

I’ve travelled to places and done things that I would never have been able to do if we didn’t tour in this band, meeting amazing people who are fans of our music and playing with bands I had only before dreamed of playing with.
