Dry the River

After two self-produced EPs and heavy DIY touring, Dry the River signed to Sony RCA and began

work on their debut album. The resultant record, Shallow Bed, was released alongside lengthy tours of North America, Europe and the UK, culminating in a sold out headline show at Shepherd’s Bush Empire in Oct of that year. The band rounded off 2013 supporting Biffy Clyro in Europe and played the NH7 series of festivals in Bangalore, Mumbai and Delhi, India. In 2014, the band return refreshed and rejuvenated with their long awaited second album. The Telegraph had this to say of their debut:

“They are a big canvas band making folk rock; a fusion of the accessible pastoral pop of Mumford & Sons with the epic electric soundscapes of Radiohead. But when he drops to the fragile intimacy of an acoustic guitar, singer Peter Liddle’s choirboy tenor evokes the tender melancholy of Nick Drake while the group harmonies swell with the sacred hush and precision of 16th-century madrigals.The multi-instrumental band can gently rock or pitch in with the messianic melodrama of Arcade Fire.”
