Twin Atlantic To Support Blink-182 On Uk Dates; Band Also Confirmed Gaslight Anthem

Posted in Latest News | Views: 1258

This summer will see the band playing their biggest shows yet: not only have they been personally invited to support The Gaslight Anthem on their UK tour (including stops at Glasgow Academy on 23 June and Brixton Academy on 29 June), but they have just been announced as support to blink-182 on their UK dates in Aberdeen, Glasgow and Dublin.

Sam McTrusty (vocals, guitar) said, “I think it’s fair to say we are pretty shocked but really excited to
have been picked to support blink-182 this summer. Like most rock fans who were 13 in 1999, I was a massive fan of the band and I grew up with them being a soundtrack to pretty much everything thereafter. At the risk of sounding cheesy but being completely honest it is a little bit of a dream come true scenario.”

Twin Atlantic will also be appearing at a string of festivals across Europe this summer, including the main stage of Rockness on 13 June, the main stage of the 2000 Trees festival on 17 July, and headlining the Red Bull Bedroom Jam stage of the Hevy Festival on 7 August.
