With a huge run of dates that takes on 12 venues in October, This Feeling's 'Alive' tour is set to be a gargantuan affair with three of the hottest up and coming rock and roll bands delivering the goods up and down the UK, along with a selection of special guests performing in each city.

Ahead of hitting the road for their first date at Bristol's Thekla on Sunday 1st October, The Shimmer Band, Bang Bang Romeo and BlackWaters all took to the stage at The Monarch in Camden to exhibit breathtaking displays of rock'n'roll goodness and to prove why they are the cream of new age guitar bands with massive futures ahead of them.
