Plans for a tour to support the release of the HIGHER LOVERS album have had be be shelved, for obvious reasons. However, HIGHER LOVERS as a live band have already been out and about, supplemented by additional musicians where possible, although a keyboard player and backing vocalists are still actively being sought, as is (potentially) another guitarist. Tim has also brought some of the songs forward in his solo acoustic shows.
The band has played at the PRIDE events at the Bath Spa University Students Union for the last 2 years. They have also played at the renowned Thunderbolt in Bristol, being asked back for a second time in January 2020. Thanks to the unstoppable Kieran J Moore and Sheer Music, they have crammed themselves onto the stage at the Cellar Bar in Devizes, supporting Olivia Awbrey, on tour from the USA. They took part in a wonderful OffBeat night at the Hy-Brasil in Bristol prior to its closure, courtesy of Arts2Life. Outdoors their first outing was at the very wonderful Tumulus Festival near Hungerford. Tim has taken the songs on solo outings at the Bath Festival Fringe on the Theatre Bus, the London Road Inn in Calne, the St James Wine Vaults in Bath, 23 Bath Street in Frome and also at the Grain Bar at the Cheese and Grain in Frome.
More gigs will be on the way if and when the world returns to anything approaching normal. News will be forthcoming via this site, the band's Facebook page, its new Instagram page under 'higherlovers_official' and Bandcamp in due course - hopefully as soon as possible.
