Essex punk-rock risers – PET NEEDS – have unveiled a new video for Ibiza In Winter, and announced a range of live dates for 2023 including a support tour with The Lottery Winners.
Filmed when the band took a recent out-of-season trip to Ibiza, the new video unfurls as a somewhat desolate tour of the usually buzzing party island. A track about frontman Johnny “trying to remain creative, positive and to look after himself after a downward spiral”, Ibiza In Winter sees Pet Needs take things to a “much deeper, more personal” level.
Johnny adds:
“[The album] talks about me being quite self-destructive and recognising where I need to get better in myself. I thought I was writing a record that was about partying and I didn’t realise until we sat down and listened to the album from start to finish.”
Following an extensive UK, US and European tour supporting Frank Turner last year Pet Needs have recently completed their own headline UK tour, including a string of dates for Independent Venue Week. With tickets flying and many dates sold out, the band added extra dates due to extraordinary demand.
They will perform with The Lottery Winners at the Brudenell Social Club in Leeds on April 20th and solo at The Parish in Huddersfield on May 25th.
