Touche Amore releasing Live on BBC Radio 1 EP

by | Sep 8, 2017

Touche Amore’s live session with BBC Radio 1 earlier this year is getting released as a digital EP and 7-inch this month.

The band made an appearance on The Rock Show with Daniel P. Carter back in March, where they played a handful of tracks off their latest album Stage Four.

Four of those live songs — “Displacement,” “Benediction,” “Palm Dreams,” “Rapture” — are getting released as a new offering titled Live on BBC Radio 1, which comes out September 15th.

Now this isn’t the first time TA has released a BBC recording. In fact, this will be their third installment of BBC Radio 1 live sessions — the first was released in 2012, and the second in 2014.

Live on BBC Radio 1 comes just in time for the band’s fall tour with Single Mothers and Gouge Away. They’ll be trekking all over North America in support of Stage Four.

Here’s a live version of “Palm Dreams” to give you an idea of what to expect.

Once again, Live on BBC Radio 1 hits streets on September 15th through Epitaph.
