PLAN B LISTEN BACK: THE ACADEMIC ON THEIR MONUMENTAL YEAR

The Academic It has been a phenomenal couple of years for The Academic. Off the back on their new single 'Anything Could Happen', Craig joined Sarina on Saturday's Plan B to fill her in on what they've been up to.   View this post on Instagram   Missing gigs a lot! Tonight we would have been playing at the @sugarmillstoke... Really looking forward to seeing you all at the rescheduled tour dates! A post shared by The Academic (@theacademic) on May 23, 2020 at 12:24pm PDT In 2018 the band were shocked and happy to find out that Mick Jagger had personally picked them out to open for The Rolling Stones. Since then, they've had a number 1 album to their name, sold out shows all over the country and played across Europe and the US.   View this post on Instagram   On this day last year we opened for The Rolling Stones in Croke Park, Dublin. They were generous and humble. We’ll never forget it. ❤️ A post shared by The Academic (@theacademic) on May 17, 2019 at 10:59am PDT Anything Could Happen is the first new release from the band since singing a global record deal with Capitol Records. The release was supposed to include a video that was filmed in London. However, the concept for the video changed when restrictions came into place. Instead of a video filmed in London, a callout was made to couples to send in videos which represent how they are living in this moment. The band were disappointed to postpone their tour plans earlier this year but are looking forward to when they can get back on the road. Check out the full chat with Sarina below.
