Don’t Blame Yourself – Duncan Reid & The Big Heads

After 2 years and 12,000 miles, breaking hearts the world over, the UK’s leading Power Pop Punk band return on May 15 with their 4th Studio album: “Don’t Blame Yourself”.
14 jolly little songs about Mortality, Mid Life Crisis, Mortality, First Summer Holidays, Mortality, Mid Life Crisis, Inter-Generational Love Affairs, Politicians, Mortality and Mid Life Crisis. A little something for all the family in these dangerous and confined times.
Musically harder than previously but with the same beguiling mixture of guitars, melody, harmony and drums, interspersed with the odd slower bit, tastefully decorated with strings, piano, organ and synth.

First single, “To Live or Live Not” contains the immortal lines: “Gonna Catch the First Plane to Caracas, Why Go Somewhere that’s far too Safe, Gonna Find a Girl who plays Maracas, Gonna ask her out with all her mates”. See what we mean about midlife crisis?
Formed by Duncan Reid, original bass player/singer with legendary UK Power Pop Punk band The Boys, the Big Heads are completed by the far younger trio of Sophie Powers (Guitar/Keys/BVs), Karen Jones (Drums/BVs) and Nick Hughes (Guitar/BVs/Trumpet/ Jack Daniel). Viruses permitting, they will continue to set the world alight, or at the very least administer a paracetamol at Concerts and Festivals from Norway’s, Odal Rock Fest, Sunderland’s Kubix and places far, far smaller. The only question is: in which year?
