Big Big Train launch live clip for „Love Is The Light“

Im August und September 2023 spielten die multinationalen Progressive-Rocker Big Big Train ihre bisher längste Tour, bei der sie 17 Konzerte in 21 Tagen in neun Ländern Großbritanniens und Europas gaben und die mit zwei triumphalen Konzerten in Londons prestigeträchtiger Cadogan Hall endete. Diese beiden Konzerte sind nun als „A Flare On The Lens“ verewigt und werden am 13. September 2024 über InsideOutMusic veröffentlicht.

Heute freut sich die Band, ein Live-Video zum Song „Love Is The Light“ aus ihrem aktuellen Studioalbum „The Likes Of Us“ zu veröffentlichen. Seht es euch jetzt hier an: https://youtu.be/oAlu6kzTp6Q?si=-oTsW_MpOAhwO4tR

In August and September 2023, multi-national progressive rockers Big Big Train undertook their longest ever tour to date, performing 17 shows over 21 days across nine countries in the UK and Europe, and concluding with two triumphant concerts at London’s prestigious Cadogan Hall. Those two concerts are now immortalised as ‚A Flare On The Lens‘, released on 13th September 2024 via InsideOutMusic.

Today, the band are pleased to launch a live video for the track ‚Love Is The Light‘, taken from their most recent studio album ‚The Likes Of Us‘. Watch it now here: https://youtu.be/oAlu6kzTp6Q?si=-oTsW_MpOAhwO4tR

Bassist Gregory Spawton comments: „Before last year’s tour we had already recorded Love Is The Light in the studio and were confident that it would translate well to live performance. What we underestimated was just how well it would come across at our shows, despite being a song that no one had previously heard before the tour.“

Lead vocalist Alberto Bravin adds: „When I put forward Love Is The Light for The Likes Of Us studio album, I told the rest of the band that it was an intensely personal song about a challenging period in my life. I am so pleased about how the fans have embraced it and the way that it has connected with people – after all, the song’s message is universal.“

Drummer Nick D’Virgilio says: „I knew we were onto something significant when Alberto first shared his demo of Love Is The Light with the rest of the band. The song just seems to keep evolving and it’s super cool to have the audience participate acapella every night. It was one of the real high points of the show.“

This new concert film package includes every song performed by the band over those two evenings and is available as a Limited 3CD+Blu-ray media book, with the concert film audio mixed in 5.1 surround sound and stereo. A gatefold 180g 2LP vinyl version is also available, which features a carefully selected range of material from the Cadogan Hall shows.
