Get ready for an evening of captivating and unconventional sound as Black Country, New Road take to the stage at The Glasshouse in Gateshead this September.

Known for their genre-mangling approach, this London-based ensemble has carved out a unique space in contemporary music, blending elements of post-punk, experimental rock and jazz with a raw, emotionally charged delivery.

Since their critically acclaimed debut ‘For the first time’, and the equally impactful ‘Ants From Up There', Black Country, New Road has continued to evolve, showcasing a remarkable ability to reinvent their sound while retaining their distinctive intensity. Their live performances are renowned for their dynamic shifts, moving seamlessly from intricate, almost whispered passages to explosive, cathartic crescendos. Expect a set that is both musically adventurous and deeply immersive, inviting the audience into their rich, complex sonic world. And this should be a particularly great gig as supporting is word-of-mouth sensations The New Eves, an all-female four-piece who search for that sweet spot somewhere between primal rock ‘n’ roll and transcendent ritual.
