    Went to see them twice in the Academy in 2016 and 2017, a good live act.

    Have seen them at a few festivals over the last few years and think they are great live. Tickets are a very reasonable price too... I shall be there with bells on!

    Thought the band were great, but the state of the crowd was shocking... At least 3 fights broke out near us, and some idiot set of a flair!
    Have never seen the likes in the Olympia before!

    what!
    we were upstairs it was very quite in the circle, half full.
    I think the upper circle could have been closed

    Very disappointed with the size of the crowd last night. Id imagine if they could have they would have moved to the academy. I thought they were brilliant though. I missed inhaler so no idea what they were like and ive seen touts support them before but im not a fan.

    Was the standing section busy?

    It was busy closer to the middle and the front. It was only about two thirds full so definitely not a sell out gig.

    Very surprised that they are not more popular, for such a young band they have a serious amount of talent and presence!

    Saw them in Dolan's on Sunday night
    Disappointingly small crowd, but despite that they put on a great show
    Lots of catchy, earworm tunes
    Lathums were good - bright future ahead
