Reckless Love
Reckless Love, the Finnish rockers who have burst spectacularly onto the UK scene in the past few months, have extended their debut ‘Back To Paradise’ headline tour of the UK to include extra shows in Dublin, Belfast, Liverpool & Brighton.
Also, due to exceptional demand, the London venue has been swiftly upgraded from The Borderline to The Garage. The tour kicks off on September 16th 2010.
In addition to their own shows, the band have also been confirmed for the annual ‘Firefest’ event on October 29th; once again, the venue has been upgraded, and the all-day show (also featuring Crazy Lixx & H.E.A.T) will now take place at Trent University in Nottingham.
With the quartet’s debut self-titled album picking up stellar reviews, plus a spectacular Download Festival debut now firmly under their belt, the time is right for RL (fronted by former Crashdiet vocalist Olli Herman) to return to the UK to give further impetus to a new glitter-coated movement founded on strong songs, equally strong image and the all-consuming desire to entertain!
To date, the band – signed to Spinefarm Records UK – have only visited the UK on two occasions; first, to play a sold-out show at the Barfly club in London, and second, for the aforementioned Download outing, where they packed out the expansive Pepsi Stage tent, being cited as ‘2010’s surprise package’ by Kerrang! magazine.
