Following their huge singles Just For Tonight and You And Me, their Gold top 10 debut album Started A Fire and three sold out tours, One Night Only are back with an Autumn UK tour, as well as various festival appearances throughout the Summer.
One Night Only are certainly one of the bands of 2008 so far, and the teenage five-piece show no signs of stopping. One Night Only are one of the biggest selling new British bands of the year so far and have amassed legions of rabid fans up and down the country. No doubt, the legion will increase as the band move further a field with live dates in Japan and a European tour.
One Night Only toured solidly throughout 2007, supporting the likes of The Pigeon Detectives, The Enemy, The Coral and The Kooks and continue to do so during 2008. Having three sold out headline tours already under their belt, One Night Only kick off another massive tour in Cardiff on October 2nd .
Formed in 2003, when singer George was just 12, One Night Only started out as a bunch of school friends âjust making noiseâ in their rural hometown of Helmsley, North Yorkshire. They went on to spend the following two years tearing the vaulted roof off the local scene. It was only a matter of time before One Night Only broke out of Helmsley. They knuckled down, wrote some songs and in Oct 06, Steve Lamacq began spinning the demo of You And Me, prompting the band to start taking themselves seriously. The teenagers quickly became subject of a fierce A&R battle and signed to Vertigo, home of The Killers and Razorlight, in March 2007.
