Deaf Havana today release their live album, Deaf Havana Live At Brixton Academy. The 22-track live album features songs performed at their monumental, raucous Brixton Academy date which took place in December last year to a huge crowd of over 4,500 people. The show marked their biggest headline gig to date and saw a truly electric atmosphere that was unforgettable for the band and those fans in attendance.
Deaf Havana Live At Brixton Academy is available now both digitally and on double CD. Deaf Havana wanted to give fans a treat when the album was announced, so revealed video for the live version of Hell which can be viewed here, and last night of Sinner, which can be viewed here
In talking to the fans at the show, Deaf Havana frontman James Veck-Gilodi said: “This is a milestone in anyone’s career, we’ve had it not tougher then anyone else, but it’s been a weird journey, and if you grew up where we grew up, to do this is unheard of! So thank you, it’s only down to you we’re allowed to do this. I cannot express my gratitude enough”.
As well as the live album release, and having just wrapped a European tour consisting of a string of sold out shows, Deaf Havana head off on their UK & Ireland tour today. The band play Cardiff’s Great Hall tonight, and will then make their way around various cities including Nottingham, Glasgow, Manchester and Sheffield before wrapping the tour at Dublin’s Green Room on 31st March. Deaf Havana will be joined by The La Fontaines and Hot Milk, as support. Of the upcoming tour, front man James added, “We are all so excited to get back on the road as it will be over two years since we did our own headline run in the UK, and even longer since we played in Belfast and Dublin, can’t wait to see you all again!”Showing no sign of slowing down, Deaf Havana will be headlining festivals Camden Rocks and 2000 Trees in the Summer.
