English indie-pop band Scouting For Girls are returning to Frome later this year.
The band, which previously performed in to a sell-out crowd at the Frome Festival in 2019, will perform at the Cheese & Grain on Saturday 23rd October.
The autumn tour will celebrate the release of their new studio album Easy Cover – a collection of 11 tracks celebrating their broad array of musical influences.
Promoters say, “Going back to the music and culture of their childhoods in the 1980s, the band regrouped during what should have been a summer of festivals to curate a joyful album of 80s covers, alongside some incredible new, original tracks inspired by the music of the era.
“The result – a glittering LP full of solid gold bops from the bands’ favourite musical memories, from Tears For Fears, The Waterboys, Cyndi Lauper, Whitney Houston and Phil Collins.”
The band added, “We’re not trying to do justice to these songs- that’s impossible! We’re just trying to have fun and take them out on the road to give people the night out they deserve after 2020.”
Throughout Scouting For Girls’ career, the band have sold over two million albums, two million singles, been nominated for 4 Brit Awards as well as an Ivor Novello, had four top ten singles, sold-out Wembley Arena, The Royal Albert Hall and, most recently, sold-out two nights at The London Palladium.
