Castlecombe Drive live in Kings Cross

Castlecombe Drive

Castlecombe Drive return on the back of serious industry acclaim for their last EP “For Better Days”. Now, the English/Irish/French indie outfit are making noise in all the right places with a brand-new record, produced by Nick Tauber (Thin Lizzy, Marillion, Toyah, and Stiff Little Fingers). Its first single drops 1 week after their headline show at The Water Rats on November 7th. With a career that’s already taken them to the stages of BST Hyde Park and Shepherd’s Bush Empire, and onto the airwaves of Radio X, RTÉ 2FM, and BBC Radio 6, Castlecombe Drive are primed with their most exciting music yet. With bigger stages in their sights, this headline show marks the start of what’s to come — and you’ll be able to say you were there at the beginning.
