ELIZA and the Bear will launch their eagerly anticipated self-titled debut album with an in-store appearance at Southampton’s HMV store on Monday, followed by a Joiners date.
The Essex quintet have recently revealed Friends, another glowing anthem taken from their debut album. The track tells an uplifting story about the importance of friends and family, combined with gleaming guitars and stadium-sized optimism.
The track follows previous Radio One play-listed singles Lion’s Heart, which led to roaring singalongs at festivals, and It Gets Cold.
Other stand out tracks include broody, strings accompanied I’m On Your Side, fan favourite Brother’s Boat and Make It On My Own.
During the making of the album, the band decamped to Nashville to work with three times Grammy Award-winning producer Jacquire King (Kings Of Leon, Of Monsters and Men, James Bay).
Having supported the likes of Paramore, Imagine Dragons and AWOLNATION, last year they completed a string of support dates with Twin Atlantic including a 10,000-capacity sell-out show at Glasgow’s SSE Hydro, Brixton Academy and Manchester Albert Hall as well as a headline date at a packed out London KOKO.
The free performance takes place at 5.15pm.
