Enter Shikari have just announced a new album and film, Live At Wembley.
Due out on July 11 via SO Recordings / Ambush Reality, the release captures the band’s sold-out date from London’s OVO Arena Wembley (obviously) last February, which included onstage guest appearances from Jason Aalon and Eurovision dude Sam Ryder.
“Our Wembley show last year was one of my favourite in Shikari’s existence thus far,” says frontman Rou Reynolds. “I’m so glad we captured it and can now relive that special evening.
“We put a lot of time, energy and money into the production, and gave our supporters the show they deserved. Despite some technical issues – like losing a couple of cameras’ footage completely! – we hope that the resulting film reflects what an incredible night it was. The swooping drone footage gives people a perspective you don’t often see, and we think our old friend Oleg Rooz on the edit really elevates it above ‘just another live video’.
“Dave Wilkie has excelled himself with the audio. He’s captured the excitement and energy in that arena, which isn’t easy in such a huge space. He was doing the sound for us when we used to play the Milton Keynes Pitz back in the day, and has recorded and mixed a few of our Bootleg Series live albums over the years, so it was great to have him onboard again.”
