Catfish and the Bottlemen are to record new album in August

In a statement posted on facebook today, the band have announced that they're going to have to cancel their appearance at Boardmasters Festival. However, a silver lining is that they're going to be recording their new album!

The statement says:

"We’re gutted to tell you that we're not going to being able to play at Boardmasters festival this year. Unfortunately it's turned out that the only time we can record our 2nd album is in August if we wanted to get it done this side of Christmas. We can't wait for you to hear the new songs and can’t apologise enough for not being able to make this show. We're all huge fans of Boardmasters and were very much looking forward to playing.
Thank you all and especially to Boardmasters for being so understanding. 

Van, Ben, Bob and Bondy."
