THE BRACKNALL
UK HEADLINE TOUR STARTS TONIGHT
NEW ALBUM ‘FALLING OUT OF VIEW’ HIT #3 ON THE
OFFICIAL INDEPENDENT ALBUMS CHART – LISTEN HERE
The Bracknall are on fire. The Essex indie-rock quartet ended 2024 on a high by selling out their biggest headline show to date at the Electric Ballroom. And far bigger things followed in 2025 when their new album ‘Falling Out of View’ crashed into the Official Independent Album Charts at #3 – both massive accomplishments for an entirely independent band that have constantly battled the odds to earn an audience on their own terms.
Now The Bracknall’s rich run of form continues tonight as they celebrate the album’s release by embarking upon a UK headline tour. In addition, the band have also confirmed their first ever show in Europe at Supersonic in Paris on May 8th as well as headlining the This Feeling stage at the Isle of Wight Festival on June 21st.
Vocalist / guitarist Jack Dacey says, “We cannot wait to get out and play this record live and fucking loud. Leave your troubles at the door. Rock and roll will save us all.”

‘Falling Out Of View’ dramatically raised the bar for The Bracknall. Their towering anthems and pulsating energy are fuelled by their ever-more accomplished musicianship, while themes of unity and brotherhood provide an uplifting antidote to a time dominated by divisive attitudes. Its potential was realised with the help of heavyweight production from Chris Marshall (Gerry Cinnamon, Dylan John Thomas) during sessions at Mogwai’s Castle of Doom Studios in Glasgow.
Beyond the album’s strong chart position, it further highlighted the immense fan support that the band have inspired after raising £43,000 for the project via crowdfunding. The album’s profile was boosted by airplay from long-term supporter John Kennedy at Radio X.
The Bracknall – completed by Jack’s brother Harry Dacey (guitar), Eddie Smith (guitar) and Dan Hurley (drums) – draw on influences such as The War on Drugs, Jamie T, The Verve and U2, creating a sound that will appeal to fans of Kasabian and Oasis. They’ve consistently sold-out bigger and bigger venues, particularly in London, and have played shows with the likes of Ocean Alley and The Sherlocks as well as festivals such as Y Not? and Stone Valley. After select EPs and standalone singles, they released their debut album ‘Going Nowhere Fast’ in 2022.
