Everyone's favourite indie darlings, Feeder are looking for the best unsigned and independent bands in the UK to support them on their upcoming tour.
This intriguing promotion comes from Feeder’s partnership with 7digital indiestore, “a service that empowers unsigned and independent artists to sell their MP3 music direct to fans online.”
Feeder vocalist Grant Nicholas said of the promo: “We’ve been working very hard on the new album and wanted to let fans hear some of the new material in an intimate setting. We also wanted to give fans the chance to really get involved in our warm up gigs. As a band we are really looking forward to reviewing the entries and choosing potentially the next big act to support our gigs.”
