Busted will go back to the band’s roots for new album ‘Half Way There’.
The ‘Year 3000′ hitmakers – made up of Charlie Simpson, Matt Willis and James Bourne – announced on Friday (26.10.18) that they will be bringing out their fourth LP in February next year, and James’ brother Chris has given fans a hit of what to expect.
He wrote on Facebook after big reveal: "Stoked is an understatement !!!!!! Thanks @busted for channelling the OG vibes on this one (sic)"
The trio confirmed the follow-up to 2016’s ‘Night Rider’ this week along with details of a UK tour, and it comes after Matt revealed it
won’t go in the same direction as their more mature and serious third studio LP.
Speaking just before the official announcement, he told Digital Spy: "I don’t really know what I’m allowed to say. I’m really bad at this.
"We made an album that we love. We got to the studio and thought what a Busted album would sound like if it was made now, then we made it.
"It’s got really fun songs that make us smile and we really hope our fans enjoy it for what it is. I don’t know if it fits in to todays requirement, I don’t really care. We made something we love and we hope our fanbase will love."
Following the announcement, James added: "If I was a Busted fan, I’d listen to this record and feel like I got my band back."
The tour in March 2019 will take the boys on a run of dates with shows in Glasgow, Cardiff, Manchester, Birmingham and London.
