Live At Bush Hall (LP)

What do you do when your singer leaves the band, just as your hotly anticipated second album drops, and the world is waiting for you to go on tour? Well, for UK sound sensations Black Country New Road, the answer was to regroup, divide vocal duties equally throughout the remaining six members, and take an entirely new and unheard batch of songs on the road! Live At Bush Hall is the sound of a group, already known for innovation, doing what they do best and dishing out a set of batch-fresh tunes, and working things out brilliantly as they go. Mixed by the masterful John Parish (Aldous Harding, PJ Harvey), this isn't your typical live album!

A brand new album of unreleased material from Black Country, New Road, recorded at the historic music venue Bush Hall in London at a series of unique shows at the end of December 2022. Mixed by John Parish and mastered by Christian Wright at Abbey Road, the new album and material marks a new chapter for the band as a six-piece. Fresh from the success of Ants From Up There and with a full touring schedule ahead of them in 2022, Black Country, New Road aka Lewis Evans, May Kershaw, Georgia Ellery, Luke Mark, Tyler Hyde and Charlie Wayne, wrote an entire new set of material to perform, abandoning the idea of a front person entirely and dividing vocal duties. Playing to swelling crowds at festivals, including triumphant performances at Primavera, Green Man and Fuji Rock, they entered a new musical phase as they navigated and developed songs that were just weeks old. They also toured the US and headlined two sold-out shows in New York.

These new performances have seen the band garner widespread support from across the board with Rolling Stone UK describing their Green Man set as "unmissable", and the Guardian going on to say that they were "greeted by something close to rapture." These performances have also attracted a profile from the NY Times, multiple glowing live reviews, and a nomination for Best Live Performer at the AIM Independent Music Awards last year.
