Beans On Toast – New Video and Live Dates

• 5th Feb 2014

Following the release of his brand new album ‘Giving Everything’ which came out on 1st December 2013, Beans On Toast will release his single ‘Keep You’ on 10th February. Free of any schmaltz or corniness, it is a beautiful love song delivered in true Beans on Toast style and has already garnered plays on XFM from John Kennedy.

The release of the single coincides with a support tour with friend and musical peer Frank Turner on his huge UK Arena Tour. Frank said: “It just wouldn’t be right to head out on a tour like this without having him around to kick the night off in style.”

‘Giving Everything’ was recorded in the wonderful Toybox studios in Bristol and produced by Mike Freear from Pyro Circus Gypsy Rave outfit Slamboree. It is still a folk record, but it has a twist. Subjects tackled on the album range from Prince Harry joining the army to Fracking; from the Modern day Glastonbury and English music venues to American conspiracy theories and all the way through to swollen throats, love and things, lots and lots of Things. There’s no point in bullshitting, these are simple 3 chord folk songs about the life that he leads and the world as he sees it. Carried through by the heart-warming nature and infectious charisma Beans conveys in every song. You can’t really dance to it but its music for people who do like to dance, especially to the beat of their own drum.
