Turin Brakes Tour Dates and Upcoming Concerts

Turin Brakes, founded by childhood friends Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian, is today made up of Knights, Paridjanian, and long-term collaborators Rob Allum and Eddie Myer. They released their Mercury-nominated debut 'The Optimist LP' in March 2001 and followed it up in 2003 with their most commercially successful album - 'Ether Song', hitting the Top 5 in the UK Official Album Charts and featuring the Top 5 hit single ‘Pain Killer (Summer Rain)’. Some of Turin Brakes’ personal highlights include playing the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury before Radiohead’s 2003 headline set, appearing on Top of the Pops, and hearing Robert Plant on the radio reveal himself as a fan. Over the years, their music has soundtracked American TV on shows like The OC, which played their song ‘Rain City’, and Designated Survivor with ‘Save You’. Labelled in the beginning as a band of the early 2000s’ ‘New Acoustic Movement’, Turin Brakes have continued to evolve beyond their formative folk-rock/guitar-pop glory without totally abandoning the music that made them. With something for listeners both old and new, their 10th album 'Spacehopper' fittingly marks the start of a new chapter, one that’s been 24 years in the making.
