THE GASLIGHT ANTHEM

Artist Information

2009 was a monumental year for The Gaslight Anthem. The band toured the world in support of their acclaimed album The '59 Sound and were featured performers at major festivals including Coachella, Rock Am Ring, Glastonbury, Pinkpop, Lollapalooza, Reading and Leeds, Hyde Park Calling, Fuji Rock and Roskilde. The '59 Sound was named one of the best albums of the year (and, in some cases, the decade) by NME, Kerrang!, Q Magazine, VISIONS, Rock Sound and Big Cheese, and the band won the "Best International Newcomer" award at last year's Kerrang! Awards as well.

The Gaslight Anthem are now hard at work recording the follow-up with producer Ted Hutt at The Magic Shop in New York City. The album will be called American Slang and is set to be released in June, that same month they join us in Hyde Park.
