Following the release of new album Sleeps Society next year, While She Sleeps will be hitting the road…
Having recently unveiled details of their upcoming fifth album and new fan platform Sleeps Society, While She Sleeps are already putting their initiative to good use with the announcement of a tiny UK headline tour.
Members of the band's Sleeps Society will get early access tickets to see Loz Taylor and co. when they hit the road in May 2021, following the release of the album in April. And we're betting their rabid fanbase will be snapping up as many tickets as possible, with Sleeps set to annihilate intimate rooms in Glasgow, Leicester, Birmingham, Bridgend, Leeds, London and Brighton.

“With the future of live performances uncertain, the Sleeps Society will enable a secure existence for WSS and gives us the opportunity to stay connected with our fanbase, developing new ways to provide for our supporters and fill the void left without live music,” said the band last week. “In these uncertain times, this is the difference between life and death for the future of WSS. We aren’t prepared to be another band forced to give up simply because the system isn’t designed to support the artist.”
They continued of the exciting business model: “The Sleeps Society ensures a solid future for WSS and creates a new model of survival for artists and bands alike. We will be delivering the highest level of fan involvement and fostering a symbiotic relationship as the Sleeps Society becomes an integral part of Sleeps’ existence.”
