This summer sees The Gaslight Anthem return to the UK for the first time in 2015. The band will be back on the European Festival circuit following the release of their UK Top Five acclaimed album‘Get Hurt’ last year culminating in performances at Reading and Leeds Festivals at the end of August.

Recorded at the legendary Blackbird Studios in Nashville with producer Mike Crossey (The 1975, Arctic Monkeys and Jake Bugg), ‘Get Hurt’ sees The Gaslight Anthem pushing their raw, stripped back rock ‘n’ roll into new territory, drawing on a fresh palette of influences ranging across folk, punk, and Americana. It is an album that is heavier, and yet at the same time more intimate, than anything they have produced to date.

THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM LIVE: 

  • FRIDAY 28TH AUGUST LEEDS FESTIVAL 

  • SATURDAY 29TH AUGUST O2 SHEPHERDS BUSH EMPIRE, LONDON

  • SUNDAY 30TH AUGUST READING FESTIVAL
