This April, Turin Brakes bring their ‘killer’ songs to Tenby’s De Valence Pavilion, along with special guest John Bramwell (I Am Kloot).

Turin Brakes stripped back to basics for a hugely successful Acoustic tour in Autumn 2024 which has extended into spring 2025 where they are now joined by John Bramwell.

As the singer in I Am Kloot, John Bramwell achieved a Mercury Prize nomination for 2010’s The Sky At Night, a Top 10 chart position for 2013’s Let It All In, numerous UK and European tours and a triumphant farewell at the Queen Elizabeth Hall with an orchestra in 2014. Now, as a solo artist, he’s travelling a very different path. His stunning new album The Light Fantastic features a dozen gloriously exhilarating, beautifully crafted and observed songs about life, humanity, the universe and everything.

Turin Brakes, founded by childhood friends Olly Knights and Gale Paridjanian, released Mercury Prize nominated debut The Optimist LP in March 2001,achieving gold status in the UK.

They followed up in 2003 with their most commercially successful album - Ether Song. Produced by Tony Hoffer (Beck, Supergrass, The Kooks) it hit number 4 in the UK Official Album Charts. It features the Top 5 hit single Pain Killer (Summer Rain).

The band is today made up of Knights, Paridjanian, and long-term collaborators Rob Allum and Eddie Myer. Recent live reviews cite them as ‘a formidable live act with equally killer songs’ whilst according to The Sunday Times the band ‘continues to excel’ in a 4-star review of their latest album Wide-Eyed Nowhere.

Turin Brakes have racked up seven top 40 singles, six top 40 albums and over a million record sales worldwide.
