Brutus announce live album ‘Live In Ghent’
BRUTUS has announced a live album!
The album, titled Live In Ghent, is set for release October 23rd via Hassle Records. The album captures the Belgian 3-piece in their hometown of Ghent in front of 750 die hard fans at the sold out show. It’s seen by the band as a way of balancing out the fact 2020 has been stripped of live touring because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The band explain – “When the real world went into lockdown, early March 2020, a year of live music disappeared before our eyes. Going on tour, playing festivals, watching bands, it’s all gone. It was as hard for us as it has been for everybody involved in live music. As a remedy, we took the time to look back on what we had already done and collected the footage we had of our previous shows. Painful and healing at the same time. That’s when we stumbled upon the recordings of our show at Handelsbeurs in Ghent, May 2019. A hometown show we fully recorded and filmed after a period of touring, in front of all our family and friends.” Continuing, “We know it’s just a recording and not even close to the real feeling we had on stage or the energy we got back from the crowd in the room, but looking back, almost a year later, we feel absolutely proud about that show.”
