The Feeling to celebrate 20th anniversary of debut album with Roadmender gig
Pop-rockers The Feeling will be heading to Northampton this winter on the final date of a tour to celebrate the 20th anniversary of their debut album.
The band are set to play 15-shows across the UK to mark the triple platinum-selling album Twelve Stops and Home which was one of the defining British records of the noughties.
Released in June 2006, the album sold around 1.5 million copies worldwide and delivered four UK Top 10 singles - Fill My Little World, Sewn, Never Be Lonely and Love It When You Call.
The band went on to become the most-played act on British radio in 2006, while the album earned them the Ivor Novello Award for Songwriters of the Year.
Twenty years on, those songs remain instantly recognisable, continuing to feature on radio and soundtracking memories for a generation of listeners.
And remarkably, the album that started it all was largely recorded by the band themselves in a garden shed at guitarist and keyboard player Ciaran Jeremiah and bassist Kevin Jeremiah’s parents’ home.
What followed was a remarkable career, including Glastonbury’s legendary Pyramid Stage, major festivals, arenas, international tours and a UK number one album with Join With Us. Through it all, the original line-up has remained together.
Frontman Dan Gillespie Sells said: “12 Stops And Home is an album that changed all our lives as a band.
“The success of the album allowed us to continue working and playing together for another 20 years and we are still the best of mates.
“Celebrating this album is going to be so much fun. I can't wait to play the album and sing along with you all.”
Dan Gillespie Sells, Richard Jones, Kevin Jeremiah, Ciaran Jeremiah and Paul Stewart will be playing the album in full alongside other tracks at the Roadmender on Friday, November 27. Tickets cost £35 in advance before fees.
