Doubling Down En Route To Australia With GRANT NICHOLAS From FEEDER

Doubling Down En Route To Australia With GRANT NICHOLAS From FEEDER

Interview by Kris Peters
Feeder delivered two monster albums in a row, 2001's Echo Park and 2002’s Comfort In Sound, establishing themselves as one of the UK’s biggest and most loved rock acts. But that was merely the beginning. While most of their peers faded away, Feeder cemented their place as one of the most enduring acts in modern rock with over 20 million albums sold, multiple number 1 albums in the UK charts, and a legacy of unforgettable live performances.
Always masters of marrying the light and the dark, illuminating the shadowy corners of their world to uncover something poignant and uplifting, their anthemic alt-rock songs packed with emotional depth and intensity have earned a devoted fan base around the globe.
Feeder continue to cement their legacy with their latest release Black/Red, a double album, which is the final instalment of a trilogy of albums with and the final two parts to Torpedo.
Equipped with an unrelenting barrage of rock anthems such as Buck Rogers, Feeling a Moment, Just a Day, Just the Way I’m Feeling, Come Back Around and High, Australian fans are set for an incredible treat when the Feeder juggernaut rolls across the country in April.
When HEAVY spoke with frontman Grant Nicholas, he spoke more about Feeder's first Australian tour in 14 years, starting in April, after previous attempts were hindered by scheduling conflicts. He emphasized the band's dedication to creating timeless music rather than following trends and expressed excitement about the lively Australian crowds, which he compared to Scottish audiences. Nicholas discussed the challenge of developing a set list that balances new songs from their latest double album, Black/Red, with classic fan favourites, aiming for a performance that feels like a blend of a new album tour and a festival best-of set.
He reflected on the significance of releasing a double album after 30 years in the industry, noting it as a major achievement, though he may not pursue another. Additionally, he shared insights into Feeder's formation in the early 1990s, highlighting their hard work and commitment to maintaining a unique identity amidst a competitive music scene, and invited fans to join them for what promises to be memorable shows.
