Stockport indie darlings Blossoms announce two new shows in Manchester and Liverpool

Blossoms have announced details of two new album launch shows for this February.

The new shows will take place in Manchester and Liverpool in support of their new album Foolish Loving Spaces.

Due to drop on 31st January, the new album release will be followed up with a series of UK shows next month.

Stockport’s indie darlings will play Manchester’s O2 Ritz on the 4^th February, followed by a second show at Liverpool’s O2 Academy on 15^th February.

The new announcements will precede previously confirmed shows in Leeds, Preston and London.

Since forming in 2013, Blossoms have enjoyed widespread success and acclaim.

Their 2016 debut full length topped the album charts for two consecutive weeks and went on to earn the band BRIT Award and Mercury Prize nominations.

Blossoms’ new album Foolish Loving Spaces was produced by James Skelly and Rich Turvey at Parr Street Studios in Liverpool.

Tom Ogden’s increasingly direct lyrical range turns album three into a romantic page-turner of light and shade.

Its divergent moods, meanwhile, are supplied by Myles Kellock’s piano and keyboard lines – which career from urgent stabs of TV game show-theme synth to more classic, rolling notes.

The record’s multi-instrumental colour and widescreen sound is provided by pedal steel / lead guitarist Josh Dewhurst, while Joe Donovan on drums and Charlie Salt on bass bring fluidly danceable grooves throughout, complemented on occasion by a wall of gospel harmony.

Current single The Keeper was described as ‘An absolute corker’ by Dork and has recently been added to playlists on Radio 1 and Radio 2.
