It’s been an impressive year for these four lads, spawning a UK #1 with the giant ‘Feel The Love’ and a very successful follow-up single ‘Not Giving In. The band will shortly embark on their April UK headline tour, bringing their carnival-esque live show, complete with extended Rudimental family of players and vocalists – to the masses. Their tour kicks off in Glasgow on April 23, following with shows in Liverpool, Nottingham, Manchester, Birmingham, Oxford and Norwich, taking in London’s Electric in Brixton on May 2. The headline tour follows their slot supporting label-mate Plan B on his sell out arena tour, and Australia’s Future Music tour (alongside Stone Roses & Prodigy), and a US tour taking in SXSW and main-stage slot at Miami’s Ultra Festival.
With a melting pot of influences stamped firmly across the brilliant and adventurous forthcoming album – soulful songs, live instrumentation and massive club tunes – the tour will showcase a wealth of new material and deliver the hits, including one of 2012’s biggest hits – the Brit Nominated“Feel The Love.”
Winning critical acclaim alongside rapturous responses from live crowds,Rudimental are a collective with strong musical heart (in the shape of Piers Aggett, Amir Amor, Kesi Dryden and Leon Rolle) who, like Soul II Soul, Massive Attack or Basement Jaxx before have come together to strike musical gold with a unique identity: sound- clashing live instruments, beats and soulful voices.
