Description:

Black Country New RoadsThe excitement of Fuji Rock is back! Their second album, "Ants From Up there", released in 2022, reached #3 in the UK and was listed as one of the top 10 best albums of the year by many media outlets. At Fuji Rock in 2022, their first visit to Japan, the band took the bold stance of "building the setlist entirely from new songs," and their overwhelming performance and emotional vocals caused the audience to burst into tears and even trended on social media. The band's latest CD, "Live at Bush Hall," which includes nine new songs from the sold-out London show, is now available in Japan only.Frontman Isaac Wood left the band a few days before the release of their last album, "Ants From Up There," and BC,NR has been renamed to BC,NR with the remaining members Lewis Evans (sax/vocals), Mae Kershaw (keyboards/vocals), Georgia Ellery (violin/vocals), Luke Mark (guitar/vocals), Tyler Hyde (bass/vocals), and Charlie Wayne (drums/vocals). They have performed their songs at major festivals around the world, including Primavera, Green Man, and Fuji Rock, and their new performances have received praise from Rolling Stone, The Guardian, NY Times, and various other media, and they were honored with an AIM Independent Music Award last year. The band was nominated for "Best Live Performer" at last year's AIM Independent Music Awards.This release features the band's London show in December 2022, and even though the songs they played were not officially released, the audience sang along with the band, proving the strength of the bond between the band and their fans. The CD version of "Live at Bush Hall" will be available only in Japan, and a limited quantity of T-shirt sets will also be released at the same time.
