Burning Rope were in the top five finalists at this year’s UK Blues Awards in the Emerging Artist category, and their debut album made the top 20 for album of the year.
The band is born out of tragedy following the death of Catfish frontman Matt Long in October 2024. Although there can be no more Catfish without Matt, the other members of the band wanted to continue playing, writing, touring and recording together, so Burning Rope was created. Very different from Catfish, they have forged their own path with a unique combination of blues, rock and a healthy helping of prog. They’ll be performing their own original new material written together over the past year. Their second album ‘Dissolution’ is released in May 2026.
They are now touring the UK and will be heading out to Europe next Spring.
