O2 Forum Kentish Town in London, UK — August 28, 2024

Canadian alt-rock band, The Beaches were back with a bang in London last month playing the O2 Kentish Town Forum. Less than a year ago, they were playing to half the capacity at HERE at Outernet and it’s amazing to see how far they’ve come since. The band opened with their hit single, “Cigarette” from their most recent album, Blame My Ex then moved through a plethora of fan favourites including “Everything is Boring,” “Me & Me,” “Desdemona” and an acoustic version of “If a Tree Falls.” The sold out venue was abuzz with the band’s energy, especially when they closed their set with their viral hit, “Blame Brett.” The Beaches put on one hell of a show for London fans and I have no doubt in another 9 months they’ll be back– on an even bigger stage.
