“We’re delighted to be on the road with This Feeling, it’s been a long time coming really, They’ve stuck their necks out and decided to just roll with it, and we’re flattered to be a part of the seemingly Renaissance-esque period for upcoming bands.” Thomas.
“2017 will be an exciting year for us, lots of shows coming up and we’ve pressed a limited edition of our debut single, ‘Swine’, which is only available on this tour.” Charlie.
“Can’t wait to get on the road on the This Feeling tour, they always put on a great gig and really look after us, we’re proud as just to be a part of it.. Bring it on!” Matt
The trio hail from Doncaster but have their feet firmly placed in Manchester, gaining many fans both locally and across the country with their punkadelic swagger.

How come Armageddon's fascist darker ages are sound-tracked, in the lamestream by so much muzak that is insipid, flaccid and auto-tuned? No wonder the world has been in an apathy coma. Humanity is waking up though now. You need songs to make your pulse race. The first bands in DECADES that fun loving humans, from every generation of rockers, can go crazy for have arrived. They're in the small venues, affordably. Poet powered punks, The Blinders, are so exciting that word of mouth, not hype, is making tickets scarce for their February dates. Check a.s.a.p. that you can get in! words/pix by TheZineUK
