“Standing on that stage is a mark of sheer hard work. We have stood upon that stage supporting many truly great acts. Now it’s Skindred’s time to take the headline slot. You may think you’ve seen us, however this is our opportunity to rise, and to step up like never before! My sound... we come to take over and truly come to Rock Wembley with a heart full of gratitude and a set full of the most rockin’ tunes that we have ever played live. Unity, love and togetherness. Let’s ‘ave it. Quadruple XL.” - Benji Webbe (Skindred / Dub War)
The announcement comes ahead of the release of Smile on Friday, August 4th via Earache Records. Already receiving great critical praise, Smile is being hailed as Skindred’s best work yet. It is a potent and mind-expanding collection of songs channelling a huge range of styles from reggae to metal, rock to pop, dub to electro, designed to melt stereos around the world. It is available to pre-order here.
Recorded in the midst of the pandemic, Skindred worked with producer Julian Emery, whose work with Nothing but Thieves illustrated his adeptness with dynamics and melodies. The songs released to date from 'Smile' which also include ‘L.O.V.E (Smile Please)’, ‘Unstoppable’, ‘Gimme That Boom’, ‘Set Fazers’ and ‘If I Could’ demonstrate the breadth, range and fun to be had in the songs on the album. Ahead of next year’s shows, Skindred will be touring venues across the country throughout October / November in support of 'Smile'. Many of the dates are sold out, with just a few shows with limited tickets remaining. For tickets and more details go to www.Skindred.net/#Live
