Canadian rock band The Beaches took to the stage at the O2 Forum Kentish Town in London on Friday (28th August) last week. The four piece composed of Jordan Miller, Kylie Miller, Eliza Enman-McDaniel, and Leandra Earl were supported by Manchester-based artist Chloe Slater who got the crowd warmed up and ready with her fantastic set.

The Beaches recently played the Reading & Leeds Festival in August before taking on their UK leg of their current ‘Blame My Ex’ tour hitting up cities London, Bristol, Manchester, and Glasgow.

The band played an array of songs from their most recent album ‘Blame My Ex’ that was released in September of last year. ‘Cigarette’, ‘Edge of the Earth’, ‘Me & Me’ to name a few, with additional songs like ‘Jocelyn’, ‘Grow Up Tomorrow’ on the setlist and ‘T-Shirt’ to finish the night.

The foursome looked fantastic as they rocked the O2 Forum K-Town to a sold out venue more than double the capacity of The Dome which they played November 2023.

If you’re into the all girl, rock-pop band vibe with great energy and catchy music then The Beaches aren’t to be missed out on. I can see them growing even more so over time and I’d love to see them playing bigger venues too.

If you’d like to keep up with the band, you can find them on Instagram, Spotify, Official Website and Youtube.
