About the event

Defences
Defences is an Alternative Metal band hailing from Hertfordshire, UK,
featuring Cherry Duesbury (vocals), William Young (keys, vocals),
Calum Wilmot (guitar), and Kyle Parke (drums). Known for their
powerful sound and emotive lyrics, the band has released three
full-length albums, two EPs, and numerous singles. Their music has
garnered millions of streams, with high fan engagement reflected in
tens of thousands of saves and playlist additions.
In 2024, Defences released seven singles from their latest album,
Shadowlight, their first under Long Branch Records. The tracks have
received extensive support from major DSP playlists and significant
airplay, particularly on BBC Radio 1 and Kerrang! Radio.
The Shadowlight era has marked an exciting chapter for Defences,
with highlights including their 2024 UK headline tour, a debut
European performance at Reeperbahn Festival, and a Germany
support tour with Rising Insane. Looking ahead to 2025, the band is
set to embark on another UK headline tour.
Defences has a strong live presence, demonstrated through
numerous UK tours, sell-out headline shows, and festival
appearances at events like Download, Takedown, Burn It Down, UK
Tech-Metal Festival, and Reeperbahn Festival. Their connection with
fans is further cultivated through their dedicated online community,
#TheHeart, ensuring their fanbase continues to grow as they enter this
exciting new phase.
