Catfish and The Bottlemen rose to become one of the biggest British bands following release of their second album, The Ride in 2016. Following a series of arena and stadium shows in 2017, the band announced outdoor shows for 2018 in Cardiff and Newcastle to build on their successes. Working with the band’s management, booking agents and promoters, press releases relaying the band’s ambitions and targeted media relations resulted in coverage across key outlets, including NME and Radio X, as well as local media, selling out their Cardiff Castle show within a day of going on sale.
