Belle & Sebastian

This year, Belle and Sebastian are celebrating 30 years of Tigermilk and If You’re Feeling Sinister by performing the iconic albums in full during a series of two-night stands at classic venues across the UK, Europe, US, Canada, and Mexico. As part of the celebrations, they head to Bexhill this December to play ‘If You’re Feeling Sinister’ in full, followed by a second set of everyone’s favourite B&S tunes. First released in 1996, both records have long-since attained mythic status – “greatest of all time” list fixtures with songs that have spent decades populating mixtapes and playlists. Pitchfork called Tigermilk “immaculate” and The Guardian praised If You’re Feeling Sinister as “subtly poetic, wickedly funny, and gorgeously melodic.” Each evening will focus on one record, followed by a second set of classic B&S tunes. Last year, Stuart Murdoch released his debut novel, Nobody’s Empire, which the Guardian praised as, “Radiantly written.” In 2023, Belle and Sebastian released Late Developers, the second of two back-to-back albums following 2022’s A Bit of Previous. It is a full-hearted embrace of the band’s brightest tendencies that is not only fresh and immediate, but possessing that B&S je ne sais quoi. “Like If You’re Feeling Sinister, this is a near-simultaneous follow-up that’s somehow even better than its acclaimed predecessor,” wrote Pitchfork.
