Bastille

Type : Concerts

Bastille have announced their much anticipated live return with their biggest headline shows to date at the SSE Arena, Belfast on November 9th. Bastille have built up a solid following in Belfast since their first show at the Oh Yeah Music Centre in 2012. Having sold out the 200 capacity venue they have gone on to sell out Mandela Hall and The Ulster Hall a year later and then the Belsonic Festival in 2015. Tickets go on sale this Friday from all usual outlets.

It’s just five years since South Londoner, Dan, started Bastille alone in his bedroom, releasing 300 copies of Bastille’s debut single. Relentless gigging, genuine word of mouth and some smartly curated mixtapes meant that within three years, Bastille became a global phenomenon; the band’s chart-conquering debut album ‘Bad Blood’ selling over 4m albums alongside 11m singles. In the UK, the twice Number One album was certified double-platinum and named the biggest-selling digital album of 2013. Hit singles ‘Pompeii’, ‘Flaws’, ‘Laura Palmer’ and ‘Things We Lost In The Fire’ helped Bastille become that year’s biggest-selling global breakthrough act, with over a billion Spotify streams and in turn earning the band British Breakthrough at the following year’s Brits, along with two Grammy nominations. They have also collaborated with acts like Haim, Kate Tempest and Angel Haze, and Dan co-founded and co-runs an indie label, Best Laid Plans, helping to develop acts like Rag ’N’ Bone Man and Rationale.
