The Damn Truth

About this event

Celebrated Montreal rock ‘n’ roll band The Damn Truth are pleased to announce they are heading back to the UK in July 2023.

The tour follows the recent release of The Damn Truth’s third studio album “Now or Nowhere” released by Spectra Musique/Sony Music and produced by legendary Grammy Award winning record producer, Bob Rock.

“Produced by famed Metallica producer Bob Rock, This Is Who We Are Now is a powerful statement of musical intent from Montreal rockers The Damn Truth, with a chorus bigger than a bus and a guitar solo that absolutely soars.” ~ Classic Rock

The Damn Truth’s single, “This Is Who We Are Now” had ten weeks of airplay on Planet Rock and a spot play on BBC Radio 2’s Rock Show with Johnnie Walker. The single also won Tracks of the Week on Classic Rock’s Louder Sound.

The band have also been championed by the British music press with extensive magazine coverage in Classic Rock, Blues Matters, Guitarist, Powerplay, Guitar Techniques, Record Collector, Fireworks, Blues in Britain, Hard Rock Hell, MNPR and R’N’R Magazine.

The Damn Truth is comprised of Lee-La Baum (lead vocals, guitar), Tom Shemer (guitar), PY Letellier (bass) and Dave Traina (drums).

Please note, this is an all standing event.

Support from British rock band Empyre 

Sonically, Empyre perform intense, atmospheric rock, with a dark and introspective edge to their writing. In the words of BBC Introducing, their music ranges from “Triumphant, chest beating rock” to more subtle but just as arresting numbers, inviting you to do the deepest of soul searching.

Empyre are dubbed ‘the love-child of Pink Floyd and Soundgarden.’

£17.50 advance, £20 on the door.
