Young Knives, the English indie rock band known for their sharp wit and angular guitar work, bring their distinctive sound to Birmingham. Formed in Ashby-de-la-Zouch and now based in Wantage, the band—comprising brothers Henry Dartnall and Thomas Bonsu-Dartnall—have built a reputation for energetic live shows and clever songwriting.
Attendees can expect a setlist drawing from their Mercury Prize-nominated catalog, including tracks from albums like *Voices of Animals and Men* and *Superabundance*. The duo's performance promises the tight interplay and dry humor that have defined their career since breaking through with the single "The Decision" in 2005.
This is a chance to see a band with a rich history in the UK indie scene, from their early days at Truck Festival to headlining festivals in Hong Kong. Their live shows are known for a raw, engaging atmosphere.
