All That Divides.
On this episode we speak to the singer of the band Black Peaks, Will Gardner.
The band formed in 2012, initially under the name Shrine, and released a debut self-released EP Closer to the Sun in 2014. After a run of UK and European festivals and tours, the band signed to Sony for the release of their debut album Statues in 2016.
The album was well received, and singles 'Glass Built Castles' and 'Saviour' brought the band support from Zane Lowe,Daniel P. Carter and daytime airplay on BBC Radio 1.
This increased profile resulted in a busy touring schedule across 2016-2017, including dates supporting Deftones, System of a Down, The Dillinger Escape Plan,Prophets of Rage and Mastodon.
Towards the end of 2017, the band announced that they had parted ways with bassist Andrew Gosden, replaced with new member Dave Larkin and were currently in the studio recording their second album, titled All That Divides. All That Divides was released in October 2018 and met with critical acclaim.
