Formed in Derby, England, in 2012, The Struts have found themselves massively embraced by some of the greatest icons in rock-and-roll history. Along with opening for Foo Fighters, The Rolling Stones, The Who, and Guns N’ Roses, the UK-bred four-piece band was handpicked by Mötley Crüe to serve as the supporting act for their last-ever performances.
Releasing their debut album Everybody Wants in 2016 and second album YOUNG&DANGEROUS in 2018, they’ve toured incessantly since their formation, including worldwide headline shows and major festivals such as Lollapalooza, Reading and Leeds, Summersonic and Download.
When COVID-19 brought touring to a halt, The Struts created their third album Strange Daysover the course of a charmed and frenzied burst of creativity. Within less than two weeks, the band laid down ten tracks, including collaborations with Robbie Williams, Tom Morello, and more.
Their 2021 single ‘Low Key In Love’ with Paris Jackson was a worldwide hit and most recently their version of the Queen classic ‘We Will Rock You’ featured in a major TV ad campaign.
