Scottish alternative rock band, Twin Atlantic, are celebrating the belated 10-year anniversary of their BRIT Certified Gold album, ‘Free’, with a limited-edition deluxe vinyl, along with a UK tour. The popular 2011 record spawned singles, ‘Make A Beast Of Myself’ and ‘Yes I Was Drunk’, along with one of the band’s biggest hits in the shape of the title track.
The special vinyl will include four previously unreleased live tracks from O2 Academy Glasgow and the iconic Barrowlands, and will be music to the ears of fans as it’s the first time the album will be made available in this format. Along with a limited edition blue vinyl, you can also get your hands on a limited release of signed copies from all four original band members.
The band commented: “Free is the album that turned music into something we would live for the rest of our lives. It holds a special place between carefree youthful hobby and the reason we still get up in the morning. As four people we were silently tuned to the same belief and way of life. This record is us coming together in the most distilled form. It opened the door to so many adventures that are burned into our souls. This is without doubt the most important part of our journey not just as a band but as people.”
