Plus Special Guests Really Big Really Clever
Monday 30th September 2024
Exchange, Bristol
Gaffa Tape Sandy are heading out on the road in support of their upcoming new album ‘Hold My hand, God Damn It’ set for release on 31st May 2024 via Alcopop! Records.
Written nervously together as the world slowly emerged from the first COVID-19 lockdown. The album writing process proved difficult, as a myriad of anxiety and personal relationship issues plagued the trio. The band was battling post-COVID mental health problems and employment issues, all while Catherine and Kim were trying to navigate recent breakups that coincided with their first UK headline tour in March 2020, just before the pandemic struck.
Thankfully, the band persisted, and adopted a more cooperative writing method that made the songwriting process for Hold My Hand, God Damn It a revitalising experience, rather than a debilitating challenge. Rehearsals that started out as somewhat difficult became more like bonding sessions, and the friendships within the band started to flourish. The theme of the album quickly materialised.
The trio released album track ‘Split’ late last year as a teaser of new material, picking up radio support from John Kennedy at Radio X, Total Rock, and more.
With their sights now firmly set on launching a full scale assault on 2024, Gaffa Tape Sandy will be pulling no punches as they reveal further new music and live dates over the coming months.
“Thrilling slices of punk rock interlaced with killer melodies that most bands would be dying for” - NME
“Feel good, energetic, yet subtly conscious…sticks in the head like maple syrup glue” - Punktastic
“Off-kilter indie punk rock thrills arriving with a barrel-load of infectious hooks” - CLASH
