A consistent and great live show can put some bands over the top and really capture the attention of the right people, opening up more opportunities. Sleep Token are a band who have crafted a Tuesday 15 October 2019 James And The Cold Gun release new single Apparently it’s only Tuesday today, which means it’s already been an insanely long week and we aren’t even close to the weekend. Never have we required more help to keep us going through the week – fortunately, it’s arrived in the form of a second single from James And Monday 14 October 2019 LIVE: Mallory Knox / Led By Lanterns @ Gorilla, Manchester Going to a band’s final ever show or tour will never feel quite right, and it seems like we’ve already seen far more than we’d like to in 2019.
