Louder Than The Music

British worship band Phatfish have now further extended their 'Higher Tour' into 2012. The group are promoting their latest album 'Higher', which was released in October, and will now continue their UK tour into March 2012.

"The Higher tour is now well under way and has been going down a storm. Due to demand from around the UK we are extending the tour into next year", explained the band. "We've also been enjoying working with Care for the family on their latest tour playing in some of the finest venues in the UK."

The tour continues this coming weekend with dates in York (2nd December) and Durham (3rd), before picking up again in the new year. Phatfish have also been confirmed to play on the main stage at the UK's Big Church Day Out event in West Sussex in June 2012.

In addition to title track 'Higher', the new album also includes a song based on the key facts from Genesis 1v1, 'In The Beginning', and a new version of the epic hymn Charles Wesley wrote at the time of his conversion, 'And Can It Be'.

Discussing 'Higher' in an interview with Louder Than The Music, Lou Fellingham said "The album has a mixture of snappy pop sounding songs, to anthemic rock sounds, to intimate sounds with everything in between. This is, once again, a great reflection of what Phatfish has always been, but with fresh life in it."
