“The past year since we released You, Me and Everything in Between. has been life changing for us.” Begins David De La Hoz, vocalist of Belle Haven. The band has experienced great growth since the release of their Greyscale Records debut; as this album cycle comes to an end, and before they look towards what’s next, Belle Haven announce their biggest headlining tour to date, and they’re bringing some amazing bands along for the ride.
Collectively, the band cannot express just how deep their appreciation and gratitude for the love they have been shown over the past twelve months, “A year on since the release of YMEB. and we still love these songs as much as the day we heard them for the first time ourselves. From touring the country with international bands we look up to, to playing intimate home town acoustic shows in a park for close friends and family. These upcoming shows are going to be just that: Shows. Not just the whole album played from top to bottom, we have much more planned to make this tour something special.”
Joining Belle Haven on this run of shows, fresh off the back of releasing their gut wrenching album Where I Go When I Am Sleeping, is the critically acclaimed Casey from the UK, coming to Australian shores for the very first time. Of their latest album Hysteria Magazine said “[it] should be admired for it’s bold attempt in re-defining a genre and for pushing the envelope when it comes to experimentation”; the Welsh five piece are finally bringing their emotionally driven music down under, and as stated recently in the UK’s DeadPress, their live show is truly something to behold. “All too often, bands who make phenomenal albums can’t quite match up in a live capacity. That’s not the case here. Turning in an utterly mesmerising set, Casey are not just a band you watch, they are a band you experience.”
Rounding out the bill is Brisbane’s Stateside, a band that’s gone from strength to strength after releasing their Naive EP, with Alternative Press calling them “the freshest and fiercest pop-rock sensation”, the band has since gone on to support The Wonder Years, Knuckle Puck, Simple Plan, and more.
If Belle Haven could some up what to expect of these shows in the simplest of terms, it is this. “We are working hard to put on a spectacle like we haven’t achieved before. We want to create a night you won’t ever forget.”
