THE SHERLOCKS ANNOUNCE
U.S. & CANADA TOUR
FOR 2017/2018
“Many attempts have been made to bury Indie Rock – but The Sherlocks are
proof of it’s enduring appeal…Assured and always on the front foot, with
driving guitar riffs and melodic lyrical hooks, they charge
& Canadian tour for 2017 and 2018, including dates in Montreal, New York
& Los Angeles. Their debut album Live
For The Moment was released Friday, August 18 to fantastic critical
reviews and entered the UK charts at Number 6, an outstanding achievement for a
debut album. To coincide with their album celebrations, The Sherlocks performed
an energetic set the same weekend at Leeds & Reading festivals to thousands
of fans.
Sheffield four-piece The Sherlocks were relentlessly touring the UK ahead of
the release of their debut album and dates have included joining both Kings Of
Leon & Richard Ashcroft as main support on their arena tours as well as
numerous festival dates.
The band, consisting of two sets of brothers, have been steadily building a
solid live following and were the first unsigned band since Arctic Monkeys to
sell out their local venue the Sheffield Leadmill. With support from the likes
of Steve Lamacq, Annie Mac, Mistajam & Huw Stephens, this is a young band
following in the great tradition of guitar groups from their area. The
Sherlocks have drawn obvious comparisons from their influencers (The Jam, The
Clash, Arctic Monkeys) but this is a band with unquenchable ambition intending
to create their own unique sound and already captivating new audiences. The
Sherlocks have been earning excellent live reviews up & down the country
after selling out multiple venues (including Sheffield’s Foundry &
Manchester’s Albert Hall) and their fanbase is going from strength to strength
with their singles “Will You Be There” & “Was It Really
Worth It?” both reaching Number 1 in the Vinyl single charts, a new
generation discovering the adrenalizing rush of rock n’ roll.
