A new rock and roll synth-fused single called Man on the Loose, which the band says “has a real stomping attitude to it” is out now too, hot on the heels of another album track called Death of Me.

This year, The Sherlocks have supported Keane in the UK and Europe and headlined their own electrifying homecoming festival in the shadow of the giant Sheffield Forgemasters works at Don Valley Bowl.

They also made a last-minute appearance in August on the main stage at Victorious Festival, the UK’s largest metropolitan music festival, after receiving an SOS call up from organisers the evening before after another act was unable to play.

Next month they will set out as special guests on Shed Seven’s 30th anniversary tour, starting at Sheffield Octagon on 14 November and including dates at Halifax Victoria Theatre (18 November), Hull City Hall (19 November) and O2 Academy Leeds (30 November).

Having climbed every step of the touring ladder, from intimate venues to arenas, The Sherlocks are known for electrifying all-live gigs packed full of hit singles such as Live for The Moment, Sirens, Falling, and Chasing Shadows.

The Sherlocks recorded their new album with producer David Radhad-Jones after previously collaborating with him on their Radio One Single of the Week Remember All The Girls.

Songwriter Kiaran said “This album feels different to any other album we’ve done before. I feel like we’re at a point where we’re so comfortable in our own identity that we can allow ourselves to try ideas and not be afraid of the outcome as it’s inevitably going to end up sounding like us. I feel like it’s an album the fans will really get behind when they finally hear it, and it is certainly one that’s going to surprise a lot of people.”

Brandon added: “I had a great time recording the album with David, it was a pleasure to work with someone so full of ideas, professional and zero ego. From a personal point of view on the drums it was definitely the most demanding album I’ve ever recorded. I was pushed to new heights, but I’m so glad as the record sounds incredible! The fans are going to be blown away.”

The drummer continued: “A lot of bands have to say their new album is the best, but this really is our best album to date. We are getting stronger and stronger every album. It’s an exciting time for the band! Can’t wait to get on the road and play these songs live.”
