Up-and-coming UK duo Ward Thomas to perform live at Bristol's O2 Academy next month
Posted on: 21 Jan 2019Twin sisters and rising UK stars Ward Thomas have announced a five-date UK tour for 2019, coinciding with the upcoming release of their brand-new album, Restless Minds. The pair will kick off the tour with a show at Bristol's O2 Academy on Thursday 28th February, with tickets on sale now via the link below.
A modern English country-pop duo made up of twin sisters Lizzy and Catherine, Ward Thomas have been tipped as "Britain's first country stars" and are looking to put a signature British twist on a genre dominated by American acts. Their second studio album, Cartwheels, released in 2016, became the first UK country album to reach number one in the UK Album Chart and has since been certified Silver.
The pair have tackled issues close to their hearts on their upcoming third album, Restless Minds, including pertinent observations on the social media phenomenon, the modern women's movement, truth, mental health and more. "We couldn't help but address social media and the subconscious competition it creates" Lizzy says. "There's a fake reality that everyone our age is falling for right now - 'scroll down! Look at my page! Look at my perfect life!'"
Having already released singles No Filter and Never Know to widespread critical acclaim, their upcoming album has been hotly anticipated up and down the country. Don't miss the chance to catch some brand-new album live as well as some of the best songs of Ward Thomas' previous projects, at Bristol's O2 Academy in February!
