Billy Bibby was the founding member and lead guitarist of Catfish and the Bottlemen and he was instrumental in writing and releasing their debut album, 'The Balcony,' which charted Top 10 and was certified 2x platinum in the UK, selling over 1 million copies worldwide.
Since then, Billy has fronted other bands, HAIG and Billy Bibby & The Wry Smiles, touring extensively across the UK and building a significant following. For this unique tour, Billy will solely focus on and celebrate his contribution to 'The Balcony' album, something he has never done before!
Billy Bibby will be performing the first Catfish album in its purest form with a stripped-back acoustic set featuring all the tracks recorded on it. The Balcony Tour will be full of nostalgia, powerful delivery and include short anecdotes about the times spent writing and recording it with the band. This is a must-see for Catfish fans!
From Billy - "I'm so excited to be playing these songs again! After 11 years, this album has become somewhat of a cult indie rock classic, and I'm so proud that I was a part of that which reached so many people's ears around the world!
SPECIAL thanks to every one of you who also bought it! This is a thank you to you guys and a closure for myself to be able to go and gig these tracks again and have some fun singing them with you all helping sing them back!
Let's tear some roofs off with our lungs!"
