Norwegian band Pom Poko has announced that they will undertake a UK tour later this year following the release of their newest single, “Growing Story”. The single is a “grungy and heavy-hitting” track and is taken from the band’s upcoming album, “The Champion”, which is set to be released via Bella Union on August 16.
The band feels that the themes of the record speak to growing up and finding oneself in a place where it is possible to hold different things at the same time. The album also shows the band maturing and growing together, reflected in their evolution over the eight years they have been together. The band considers itself a “weird and really lovely little gang to hang out in”, with each member seemingly able to work together “telepathically”.
The UK tour will take place in October and includes several dates around the country, including stops in Glasgow, Sheffield, and Birmingham. The band encourages fans to check out the dates and buy tickets via the link provided.
Pom Poko fans can hear the band’s latest single on the band’s website or via YouTube. The band’s prior releases have received critical acclaim from several music outlets, including Rolling Stone, which named them one of the “10 Artists You Need To Know”.
With their new album and tour, Pom Poko is poised to take the UK by storm and leave audiences in awe of their power and energy. Fans of the band should not miss this chance to see one of Norway’s most talented groups in action
