Alternative-rock band Snayx have announced the dates for their debut UK headline tour in 2023.
They announced the show on Instagram, saying “HERE WE GO THEN. Tickets for the biggest party of 2023 are on sale now!!!” The poster can be seen below:
They followed on, saying “Can’t wait to see all of our beautiful mates across the UK – we have so much in store for you. Joined by shelflives + monakis, it’s a show you do not want to miss.”
The band, pronounced ‘Snakes’, began in 2019 as a duo in Seaford- a small town near Brighton in the South East of England, best known for the beach. Their first single “False Friends” was met with acclaim and the band have since toured with big acts such as Nova Twins, Kid Kapichi, and more.
The duo, Ollie Horner (bassist/guitarist) and Charlie Herridge (the frontman/guitarist) recently welcomed a third member into the group: Lainey, who plays hard-hitting drums and hails from Sheffield. On Instagram, as shown below, they said regarding the change: “And then there were three. Officially welcoming the icon, force of nature and best mate lainey loops / Slainey / Laino as a full time member of SNAYX. In our final form and couldn’t be happier working on something we can’t tell you about yet xxx”
They described their sound here: “We’re a little bit of this and a little bit of that, we mostly take inspiration from punk and mod subculture but there’s elements of Grime, Dance and Rave culture in there too. We don’t like to pigeonhole ourselves to one sound or style – Spice of life baby!”
This will be the band’s first headline tour ever, bringing another band from the south-east with them: Brighton band Monakis. Monakis recently performed a sell-out headline show at Brighton’s Green Door Store and released grunge single “White Rabbit“, which is the second single from their forthcoming EP, due to be released in June. They will be performing alongside post-punk, Canadia-British outfit Shelf Lives.
Snayx’s latest single “Boys In Blue” was released last week, and the official music video can be watched below:
