“We’re searching every city and town we play in for local heros to get to our shows on this UK tour. We want to hear fan stories and celebrate the people who give back to their local community or put themselves on the line for other people. We always hear amazing stories from fans wherever we travel to and this time round we want to draw attention to them and share them with more people. We can’t wait to hit the road” said Alex Trimble.
