Great concert let down a little again by poor sound system at Newcastle o2 Academy

Third year I have been to Fratellis concert, each year hoping that the sound quality will improve. Unfortunately I'm still waiting. Yet again, a great show let down slightly by poor sound. Don't know if it's Fratellis equipment or O2s but it doesn't cope with loud volume levels. The final song of the performance Run around Sue was completely distorted up in the balcony.

The Fratellis, O2 Academy Newcastle, Newcastle Upon Tyne - 30th March 2018

Great performance & superb support

Loved the intimate feel of the O2 institute. Black Pistol Fire were fabulous, so much energy & really addictive music. Fratellis were great too.

The Fratellis, Rock City, Nottingham - 26th March 2018

Everybody knows we loved last night!

Had an absolute blast seeing the Fratellis again at the O2 Forum. The support from Black Pistol Fire was a superb start to the evening- a good match for the Fratellis, they made us really stoked to see the main act. Personal highlights were the cover of Fleetwood Mac's 'Oh Well', and the energetic performance from both band members, particularly the frontman, who leapt into the crowd and carried on playing guitar seamlessly- very impressive. The Fratellis themselves struck and excellent balance with old and new tracks. One of the best things about the Fratellis gigs is you get a real value for money- there is no mucking about between songs, meaning you get to see more than 20 banging tunes in a row! New tracks were well picked, and personally was really impressed with how well rehearsed these sounded. 'Stand Up Tragedy', 'Laughing Gas' and 'Told You So' were the standouts for me. The band come across as humble and not at all pretentious, Jon the guitarist uses a beat up red guitar that looks like it's seen some truly wild nights, but you are left with the impression that this is a band with humble origins that never got too big for their boots. Myself, my girlfriend and my sister have been fans for years and it goes without saying we really enjoyed rocking out to the oldies including 'Henrietta', 'Ole Black n' Blue Eyes', 'Flathead', 'Chelsea Dagger', and my personal fave 'Creepin' up the Backstair'! Was also a joy to hear so many fans singing along to tracks from comeback album 'We Need Medicine' and the follow up, 'Eyes Wide Tongue Tied'- both albums have some excellent tunes on them, and deserve the recognition they have gained from the fans. The gig was terrific, we'll definitely be back to see the Fratellis!

The Fratellis immediately shot to prominence when they were played by the radio show Beatscene on Scotland’s Beat 106 which brought them to the attention of Fallout Records with whom they promptly signed.

Taking their band name from the bad guys in cult movie The Goonies, their first release was The Fratellis EP which was shortly followed by the single Henrietta in 2006.

Their first LP was titled Costello Music. Released in 2006, the album was an instant smash hit charting at #2 in the UK Album Charts for two weeks and were rewarded by being voted as the Best British Breakthrough Act.

They went on to support Kasabian on a UK tour before playing a stunning set at Glastonbury Festival 2007.

The Fratellis’ second album, Here We Stand, was released in 2008. The album was self-produced by the band and was promoted by a television advert narrated by Karl Pilkington. The band continued to enjoy packed out tours and released their third album We Need Medicine in 2013. It was followed two years later by their critically acclaimed fourth album Eyes Wide, Tongue Tied which was written and recorded in Los Angeles, California.

Now they return with their fifth album In Your Own Sweet Time. Featuring the single Stand Up Tragedy, the new album sees a real development of the band’s sound and even includes 80’s sounding synths.
