Here

Description

One of the UKs most celebrated bands, Teenage Fanclub, make their their long-awaited return with the release of tenth album, Here, on 9th September.

Here is the effortless work of a band entirely confident in their own craft the consolidation of nearly three decades of peerless songwriting and almost telepathic musicianship amongst the bands three founder members: Norman Blake, Raymond McGinley and Gerard Love. Recorded with the bands soundman David Henderson alongside regular drummer Francis Macdonald and keyboard player Dave McGowan in three distinctly different environments (initially at Vega in rural Provence, then at Raymonds home in Glasgow before mixing at Clouds Hill in the industrial heart of Hamburg), its a record that embraces maturity and experience and hugs them close.

As ever, song-wise the Fanclub present a textbook representation of democracy in action, the record offering four each by Blake, Love and McGinley. From the almighty chime of opener Im In Love through The First Sights ecstatic soul-search and the paean to unerring friendship With You, Here is a a collection of twelve songs about the only things that truly matter life and love.

Teenage Fanclub will be touring the UK extensively throughout the Autumn, including two London shows Islington Assembly Hall and Electric Ballroom both of which sold out within days of going on sale. Glasgows finest will also be making an exclusive appearance at this years End Of The Road festival in early September.
