FOLLOWING hot on the footsteps of We Are Scientists and Enter Shikari, another huge rock band has just announced a show at The Cresset.
The mighty Feeder will take to the Peterborough stage on Friday, November 28.

Promoter Steve Jason is thrilled to have secured one of Britain's most popular indie-rock bands of the last 10 years, and tickets are on sale now.

The Welsh trio, fronted by Grant Nicholas, have built up a staggering back catalogue of quality albums, and revel in the spotlight of the live arena.

Feeder released their first two albums, Polythene and Yesterday Went Too Soon, in 1997 and 1999 respectively, before the release of their third album, Echo Park, in 2001.

It was this album that catapulted them into mainstream popularity.

Frontman Grant and bassist Taka Hirose then had to come to terms with the devastating death of drummer Jon Lee, who committed suicide in January 2002.

The band continued, releasing Comfort In Sound at the close of 2002, an album which was well-received by critics.

This was followed by 2005's Pushing The Senses, while their newest album, Silent Cry, was released in June.

Steve, who mainly promotes gigs at The Met Lounge, said: "I am delighted to announce another big show at The Cresset.

"Feeder have long been one of the most popular live bands around, and always go down a storm when they play the Reading and Leeds festivals.

"For the last few years they have been playing arena shows, so to see them in a venue with a capacity of just over 1,000, is a real bonus for Peterborough music fans."

The show is open to all ages, but all under-16s must be accompanied by an adult.

Tickets cost £22.50 in advance from www.seetickets.com, www.ticketweb.co.uk or The Cresset box office on 01733 265705. There is no booking fee for cash purchases at the box office. All telephone credit or debit card sales incur a booking fee.
