Far from their first rodeo, SHVPES have previously appeared at a number of high-profile festivals, and have supported the likes of Bring Me The Horizon, Finch, Fightstar, Bullet For My Valentine, Young Guns, Memphis May Fire, 36 Crazyfists and Crossfaith.
The band are fast becoming one of the most hotly talked-about young alternative acts in the UK, making a mark with fans and critics alike, despite not having released their debut full-length album yet.
Since signing to the highly successful Search & Destroy Records (now operating in association with Spinefarm Records), the band has been writing non-stop for their debut album and will soon be entering the studio to record.
Says SHVPES vocalist, Griffin Dickinson:“We’ve been writing night and day for the past few months, constructing our debut album. It’s sounding killer, I can’t wait to show the world what SHVPES is really about.”
More details will be revealed in due course.
