Words: Linn Branson
Since we featured the Doncaster three-piece - now based in Manchester - band The Blinders here back in October they've had all manner of accolades thrown at them - including being called the "best band in the country right" by the equally lauded Cabbage - for their live shows and explosive debut single 'Swine', released via Rock Art Records last year.
The trio - Thomas Haywood (vocals/guitar), Charlie McGough (bass), Matt Neale (drums/ percussion) - now take their ferocious, visceral punk rock energy back out on the road as they prepare for their first ever UK headline tour.
Following on from two sold out ‘This Feeling Big in 2017’ shows in Manchester and London earlier this month, The Blinders now headline a ‘This Feeling’ tour to tie in with the vinyl release of ‘Swine’, and previously unreleased track ‘Ramona Flowers’ (very limited signed 7" will be available at the shows).
