JTR & ODD GNOME Presents Black Coast Tickets

Expect big grooves aplenty as Stoke-on-Trent’s Black Coast unleash their second bout of aggressive metal tomorrow. As the band explain: “A lot of people tell us that our music makes them want to bang and nod their head, so we’d say it’s definitely heavy groove with a lot of aggression and melody thrown in as well.”

The quintet of Charlie (vocals), Joe and Scott (guitar), Jack (bass) and Matt (drums) formed in January 2016 after their previous bands conveniently came to an end around the same time. They released a debut EP that earned them a support of Stray From The Path, a full tour of Japan, then supporting the likes of In Hearts Wake and Silent Screams.

As they explain: “The aim was, and still is, to make music we could be proud of and music that would be fun to play live. We all wanted to take a step-up to the next level with this band, whether that be our live shows, writing, recordings, touring etc… All of us have always been in bands for years and all share the same love for music and playing music and being in a band lets us write what we want to hear.”
