Their critically-celebrated 2022 album, Waiting To Spill (Polydor/Capitol), presented an image of The Backseat Lovers that was complex, intense and riven with the deeply personal ambition and innermost yearning, borne of a band growing up in a storm of new, international attention as the world got stranger. The Utah four-piece, after two previous sold-out UK Tours and repeated capacity tours around their native US return to England, Scotland and Ireland for seven sold out dates - THIS WEEK.

Drawing on influences such as Radiohead and Wilco and taking one step to the side of the peppy folk-rock that had launched them to cult-stardom with their first, independently recorded and released album, When We Were Friends in 2020, the band’s creativity and drive to push their own artistry emerged on Waiting To Spill and its unusual instrumentation and recording techniques.
