Their honest approach echoes a love of 90’s ‘heart-on-sleeve’ emo culture. At times sobering, a positive message prevails; we’re better together.

Special Kinda Madness are a Specials and Madness tribute
2 Bands … 2-Tone … 1 Fantastic Night!
Everyone said it was time for a new dance. No-one expected it to come from Coventry.

At every turn, the independent group were told to work with bookers and promoters to stand a chance of selling out a headline show. Believing in themselves, As December Falls refused to listen.
And as such, fresh from their biggest headline tour to date, As December Falls come to The Live Rooms, Chester as a gap on their tour with Bowling For Soup on 4th December. Having played Slam Dunk Festival, 20... [Read more]
