DIVORCE at Blackpool Central Library 20.10.24Alt-country gone grungey outfit Divorce are fast ascending and we’re chuffed to welcome them to Blackpool Library🗼🚀😎
The Nottingham four-piece, who once described themselves as “Wilco meets Abba”, formed in the pandemic and played their first gig supporting TV Priest in October 2021. Their break out single was the on-edge country-punk escape anthem ‘Services’. Followed up by debut EP, ‘Get Mean’; a candid portrait of a band developing in real time – and one that earned them BBC Radio 6 playlisting and acclaim across the UK music press.
"Awash with satisfying harmonies, their country-chamber-pop exudes familiarity and sophistication to soften that irreverent, punchy lyricism."
The Independent
Audiences have fallen for their warm yet “desperate” country theatrics, inspired by Tiger and Felix’s teenage origins. “There had to be humour in it,” says Tiger. “A lot of our art reflects how repetitive and pathetic the human condition can be, and how our emotions dictate almost everything we do despite them being quite silly and simple a lot of the time. I think that’s quite funny, and our costumes” – suits, wigs, sometimes crop tops for the boys – “brings a vulnerability to it. It all means something within the project, we’re not just trying to be the most flamboyant or eye-catching.”
