“The British quintet around singer Conor Mason wants to bang their heads through the wall,” say the organizers of the Pure&Crafted 2022 via Nothing But Thieves. Why it is like that? “Their songs are like a bursting pressure relief valve.” A fitting comparison, because some of their first singles called “Wake Up Call” and “Trip Switch” positioned themselves at supersonic speed in the British charts. And also in the USA as well as in the German-speaking countries you can gain a lot from this energy.
The alternative sound of the band, which was founded in 2012, stands out clearly, at the same time the musicians have long since caught up with other successful bands of the genre. This can be seen not least in the faces of their fans, who celebrate every gig of Nothing But Thieves with fervor. “They showed how much substance there is in their songwriting with their acoustic sessions during the corona isolation,” says the creators of Pure&Crafted – but it should be much louder and more action-packed on July 1st at 7:45 p.m. on the main stage will. There, the band from Southend-on-Sea will play an hour-long set.
