Update

Apologies, once again, for the lack of recent updates.

The promised photos of the Brighton Dome gig in November can be viewed in full on Flickr, here.

The big news of the past month is that the band have parted ways with Sony BMG. There is no statement from the band or label, just a story that has been reported on many sites. Most are suggesting that the reason is due to the second single from You Can Do Anything, 'What's Your Problem' failing to enter the UK top 40. In my opinion the single did not receive the promotion given to others in the past, combined with the fact that it was the first single to be released on just two formats (instead of three) since Confusion.

The album performed well, reaching number 6, and they performed to a huge number of fans during 2008, including many festivals, the outdoor Forest tour, and the huge 22-date winter tour ending with their largest ever headlining gig at Liverpool's Echo Arena. Throughout these shows the band's live performance has gone from strength to strength, incorporating new guitarist Paul Molloy, and additional live sax player Austin Murphy.

Whatever the band's future regarding record labels, I have no doubt that they will continue to build on their successes of the past year, and hope that the possible lack in tour funding that would have been provided by Sony will not stop them from getting out and playing live again this year. Things have gone quiet on the official site, and the forum seems to have disappeared, but I will update the blog with any more news I hear on the subject.

Sorry for the lack of posts for a while... My computer was broken for a while and I recently started a new job which has been keeping me busy lately!

Anyway, the tour is well underway, and I will be bringing you photos, setlists and reviews for past and upcoming gigs over the next few weeks so keep checking back!

What's Your Problem Artwork

Just a reminder that What's Your Problem is released on September 8th 2008. The artwork for the single is a still from the video, and is the first Zutons single to feature a photo as its artwork since the debut Devil's Deal!
