General ticket sales will begin on Friday, April 11th, at 10:00 AM, with a special pre-sale opportunity available starting Thursday, April 10th, at 10:00 AM. This is a fantastic chance for fans to secure their tickets early, as the band’s previous shows have often sold out rapidly. You can find more details and purchase tickets directly through their official website.
“When Youth Fades Away” showcases Somebody’s Child’s evolution as a band, following a series of electrifying singles including “Time of My Life” and “Irish Goodbye.” The album has already garnered praise from numerous publications, such as Uncut and CLASH, cementing the band’s reputation for melding emotive rock with pulsating electronic textures. This release captures the raw energy and introspection that define their sound.
The band has teamed up with Grammy Award-winning producer Peter Katis, known for his work with acclaimed acts such as The National. This collaboration reflects their desire to explore new sonic territories, merging various influences ranging from post-punk urgency to lush indie rock, creating what some critics have called “a triumph” for Somebody’s Child.
Frontman Cian Godfrey describes this new album as a journey of self-discovery, exploring themes of aging, the passage of time, and the complexities of relationships. He emphasizes the importance of capturing these real-life emotions in their music, offering listeners a chance to reflect on their own experiences. This depth of thought is what distinguishes Somebody’s Child and resonates with their growing fanbase.
Following the success of their in-store tour, which saw multiple sold-out dates and a notable position on the official independent charts, the band is surely destined for even greater achievements. Their upcoming eight-date German tour is already sold out, a testament to their rising popularity across Europe. This will be complemented by summer performances and festival appearances, including a coveted supporting slot for Snow Patrol at Latitude Festival in July.
The UK and European headline tour kicks off on October 14th in Cardiff and will run through to November 18th, covering a range of cities including Dublin, Paris, and Berlin. With this tour, Somebody’s Child is poised to further establish themselves in the modern rock scene and deliver an unforgettable live experience to their dedicated fans.
