Friendly Fires to mark debut album fifteenth anniversary with London show
By Andy Malt | Published on Wednesday 5 October 2022
Friendly Fires have announced a one-off show in London to mark the fifteenth anniversary of their eponymous debut album in February next year.
“Time is a flat circle, much like a CD or a record, and one such flat circle that completely reconfigured our lives will be turning fifteen next year”, say the band. “‘Friendly Fires’ only peaked at a modest number 38 in the album chart, but momentum grew via the word of mouth of our small crew of proactive fans, and eventually we had a hit on our hands”.
“So next year, we’re going to be getting out there and doing a special show to celebrate this, both for us and for the fans who made it a success”, they go on. “We’ll be blasting through the record in full along with a generous helping of other tunes, doubtless feeling a bit weepy and emotional throughout. It’ll be great to see the old gang, plus the newer heads who came on board later”.
The show will take place at Here At Outernet on 24 Feb. Tickets go on general sale on Friday.
