Lost Horizon, Friday 12th November
Announce new tour and Album ‘Past The Point Of No Return’ Coming 26th November 2021
Following the release of their latest single ‘Animal’ Brighton 4-piece Will & The People have announced details of their new album and subsequent tour this November/ December; following recent sold out shows in London and Brighton, as well as festival plays at the likes of Boardmasters and Green Man, where they headlined the Chai Wallahs stage on closing day.
Recorded at The Libertines’ The Albion Rooms over the course of a week, the band say of the album:‘It represents a journey of the soul; from the darkness and depression of a lost and seemingly hopeless position – to a realisation and acknowledgment of needing to change, needing to empower oneself and then finally to a more joyous, un-shakeable happiness towards all aspects of life. Life is beautiful and can be lived with joy and grace. Through staying true to your passions and beliefs and ending, new chapters, happiness is there. The album, “Past the point of no return”, is the meeting of the past and present on our journey into the future. It’s a four-way diary entry for life as we currently know it.
You can tell from the way they play, talk and live that Will and The People aren’t following a formula or trying to follow the pack. They play music because it makes them feel good, feel free and feel whole.
Their music is nostalgic, colourful, both melodically and lyrically, and it packs a punch; heavy guitars, catchy synth lines and punchy drums frame these wonderful compositions. Live and in the flesh, they are force to be reckoned with, and is where they truly shine.
“Over the last decade or so the outfit have more often than not, done things in their way, and crafter a sound that feels both colourful and full of life and rich with melody and last appeal” CLOUT
“With an album titled Past the Point of No Return on the way, and as evidenced by their exceptional new single ‘Animal’ Brighton’s Will and The People are ones to watch very closely. Punk in delivery and attitude , the four-piece are glittering-bombing their wild music so as to make an intoxicating blend of stadium rock and punk that is politically un-political.” GIGWISE
