The Trusted tickets and 2024 tour dates

Biography

The Trusted are Southend-on-Sea natives Dave Batchelor, Dale Holt-Mead, Fin Cunningham and Tom Cunningham. Initially starting out in secondary school, the band bonded over their mutual appreciation of a strong melody and atmospheric, edgy pop. Sharing an enthusiasm for 21st century Brit-rock led by the likes of Catfish and the Bottlemen and The 1975, as well as classic late ‘70s new-wave icons such as The Clash and Elvis Costello, The Trusted thrive off their unique fusion of post-punk energy and storytelling.

Alongside critical praise from the likes of Gigslutz, EarMilk, American Songwriter, not to mention widespread BBC and International Radio airplay, the four-piece have been earmarked by BBC 6 Music Presenter Tom Robinson’s Fresh on the Net, and BBC Introducing in Essex as one of the South East’s most vibrant acts.

The Trusted have received support over the airwaves from major radio players including Jake Peach BBC Introducing Essex, Tom Robinson BBC 6 Music, Gary Crowley BBC Radio London and Charlie Ashcroft Amazing Radio and many international radio stations.

Known for their mind-blowing live sets, the band have performed at prestigious venues across the UK, as well as two successful European Tours

“ They can go from making an emotional indie ballad to a record that gets you dancing at your local indie disco and I think they are ready to take over some of the big venues”
