Known as the band who helped kick start the Sheffield revival alongside the likes of the Arctic Monkeys, Milburn return with new single ‘Take Me Home’.
Now on a fresh horizon, ‘Take Me Home’ sits comfortably between the anthemic sounds of noughties favourites The Strokes, indie newcomers Blossoms and Spring King, reviving Sheffield’s local music scene.
“After the chaos that was the Sheffield comeback shows it was important to us that we released some new material if we were going to take the project any further,” frontman Joe Carnall said upon its release.
After being away for ten years, Milburn reformed last year due to overwhelming popular demand. As a result, the band have sold out four massive anniversary shows in their hometown with a combined capacity of 10,000 tickets, selling in under 5 minutes. It’s hard to understand why they would consider quitting in the first place. They have also announced a huge hometown show on 2nd June at Don Valley Bowl with support from Reverend & The Makers and Cabbage.
