Frontier Touring is
delighted to welcome back Glasgow five-piece Teenage Fanclub, returning to New Zealand
in February 2019. The iconic
What You Do To Me rockers will perform one
headline date in Auckland, with tickets going on sale Monday 27 August.
Over the course of almost 30 years in which they released seminal albums such
as
A Catholic Education,
Bandwagonesque,
Thirteen,
Grand Prix,
Songs From Northern Britain,
Howdy!, Man Made,
Shadows &
Here, Teenage Fanclub went
from being scrappy indie underdogs, through band-most-likely-to, eventually
arriving at the status they’ve held ever since: one of Britain’s most beloved
cult bands.
Not liked, or admired, or respected: beloved.
Teenage
Fanclub’s most recent studio album is their tenth effort, 12 tracks and a
textbook representation of democracy in action: 2016’s
Here.
August 2018 sees the band celebrating the vinyl re-issue of five longplayers
originally released between 1991-2000 on Alan McGee’s Creation Records. Vinyl
fans, head
here to purchase new copies of
Bandwagonesque,
Thirteen,
Grand Prix,
Songs From Northern Britainand
Howdy!, all
re-mastered for the very first time by the group at the UK’s legendary Abbey
Road Studios.
Formed in 1989, Teenage Fanclub are a rare thing: a group who have grown old
with their audience, reflecting their changing lives and shifting concerns.
When Teenage Fanclub’s crowd looked at the band in 1991, they saw people just
like them: boozy, boisterous and rambunctious. When they look at the band now,
they still see themselves in them: they’re like the old best friends you see a
couple of times a year, and come away from each meeting with your affections
revived.
Don’t delay in grabbing tickets to Teenage Fanclub, playing Auckland February
2019!
