Zealous New Zealand group The Beths to embark on UK tour

Energised guitar riffs and hooks meet tight lipped, quick wit lyricism with flickers of black comedy and self depreciation in The Beths, who play a massive Birmingham show this spring.

Fronted by Elizabeth Stokes, The Beths revisit the punk-pop of their youth and revitalise it with modern indie pop hooks, compulsive in nature and addictive for every listener.

Perhaps it’s them being from the other side of the pond, but its hard not to liken The Beths to Aussie counterpart Courtney Barnett, both for their tastefully-jarring guitars and tracks filled with self hatred and being happily unhappy in life. After releasing the Blood EP and 2016 and later the full LP Future Me Hates Me in 2018, The Beths gained a reputation across Australia and New Zealand, now taking their self-loathing/loving songs across the UK.
