Written by Jon Stickler
About to head out on their own headline tour The Xcerts have just received news that they will be supporting Guns N’ Roses on their forthcoming UK arena shows! Speaking of the dates lead singer Murray Macleod says: “It will be an honour to play with a band of Guns N’ Roses stature and we are looking forward to taking ‘Scatterbrain’ to the big stage”. In addition The Xcerts have added a show at Fitzhurbert, Brighton on 10th May as part of The Great Escape’s The Alternative Escape. Dates are as follows:
The Xcerts second album ‘Scatterbrain’ has already taken the band on an incredible journey. In the album's short lifespan the band have been on several headline tours with a fan base that grows at every show, performed in Europe for the first time where their album is also released, been played by most major national radio stations (Radio 1, Kerrang! radio…) and TV channels (Kerrang TV, Scuzz…) and toured with many of their favourite bands (Manchester Orchestra, Biffy Clyro, Taking Back Sunday, Brand New...) Not only that, but the band flew out to New York to record it with their favourite producer Mike Sapone!
