Razorlight to headline Get Loaded in the Park

Over the past decade Razorlight have sold four million albums, played sold out arena tours and headlined festivals. They have also appeared on the cover of magazines from NME to Vogue, received two BRIT Awards – ‘Best British Band’ and ‘Best Album’, as well as an NME Best New Band Award. Their debut album, ‘Up All Night’, was released in June 2004 and reached number three in the UK Album Chart, with their second effort ‘Razorlight’ going straight in at number one in 2006. In 2010 the band played shows outside of the UK, supported U2 and began to write their new album.

 

Razorlight’s performance at Get Loaded in the Park will be the first show in England featuring the band’s new line-up. Joining Johnny Borrell are Gus Robertson (Rotten Hill Gang) on guitar and Freddie Stitz (Smokey Angle Shades) on bass. Skully, who took over when Andy Burrows left in 2008, continues as Razorlight’s drummer. With the fourth album on the horizon, Get Loaded in the Park represents the first opportunity to hear their new tracks and the next chapter in the history of one of the UK’s most prestigious guitar bands.
