A Day To Remember Announce UK And European Tour

A Day To Remember are returning to the UK and Europe this May with grandson in tow.

While we await more news on when the new A Day To Remember album will arrive (it was pushed back due to the art not being ready), the Ocala titans have just announced a huge UK and European tour for this May – suggesting that perhaps we might get new music in time for that.

Interestingly, as well as taking on huge UK venues in Glasgow, Cardiff and Nottingham with grandson as support, Jeremy McKinnon and co. will also be performing over the Slam Dunk Festival weekend – though they'll be in Hatfield on the day of Slam Dunk North, and in Leeds on the day of Slam Dunk South; the festival has called it, "A second show at Leeds Temple Newsam and Hatfield Park on Slam Dunk weekend.

"This isn't day two of Slam Dunk Festival everything is staying the same there, this is a separate show with another band…"

Chatting to Kerrang! recently about the sound of A Day To Remember’s new album You're Welcome – and the balance of sticking with their ‘classic’ style to expanding with more electronic influences – Jeremy explained: “The whole point of this, for me, was like, ‘Let’s use the A Day To Remember formula – the same thing that everyone has always known and loved about us – but let’s take on modern influences.’ Let’s take on modern structure with the small chorus into the big drop part, and let’s do that as a band, instead of electronic stuff. Let’s use some of those elements to make cool sounding stuff as we go, but keep it that A Day To Remember sound here, and let’s mess around with new song structure, and a modern production take, but keep that heaviness that is us. It’s just crazy.”
