Enter Shikari on Amazing Breakfast

As part of our Amazing Radio Christmas Day special I interviewed Enter Shikari at the end of their world tour homecoming show at The Forum in Hatfield.

Unfortunately the snow had crippled the UK and so lots of people couldn't make the gig, but they did it again for all the people that missed it, on the Wednesday before Christmas.

The post-hardcore band from St Albans set out by playing shows whenever they could, building up a loyal following. An early landmark of success came when they sold out the Astoria whilst unsigned, something only The Darkness had done before them.  Since then they've had two albums out, smashed it when it comes to touring, festivals and support slots - this year they went on tour with The Prodigy in Europe - and are gearing up to record album number three.

Their journey is inspirational to many of the artists we play on Amazing Radio so I felt it was only right to find out how they did it all.


Here I am in conversation with singer Rou and bassist Chris before the show.
