POP-ROCKERS, The Feeling are back from the wilderness with a whole new lease of life for their performance at the O2 Academy Bournemouth on Thursday night.

The quintessentially English five-piece band burst into the music charts in 2005 with the rousing Fill My Little World, followed by hit singles Never be Lonely, Sewn and Love it When you Call.

Back with a brand new album, Boy Cried Wolf, The Feeling will be keen to remind the Bournemouth audience why they fell in love with their catchy melodies in the first place. Lead guitarist Kevin Jeremiah said: “We’re the same band, with the same spirit, but a slightly more grown up feel.

“We can’t wait to play in Bournemouth because it always feels like a local gig for us. All our family and friends tend to come down and we always get a great crowd.”

The Feeling will be playing a mixture of old favourites from their debut album 12 Stops and Home along with material ranging from dark ballads to upbeat pop from Boy Called Wolf.
