Tired of Fighting
Tired of Fighting are an explosive emo punk band from Newcastle-Upon-Tyne, England with a unique and captivating sound. Inspired by early 00’s emo such as Motion City Soundtrack and Taking Back Sunday, Tired of Fighting blend the energy of Paramore with the storytelling of The Gaslight Anthem.
Formed in 2018, Tired of Fighting were born when Nic Wood (vocals and guitar), who was well known in the local area for his huge, booming vocal delivery, was hounded by George Sharpe (Bass) to form a band and put some "oomph" behind the voice rather than just his signature acoustic guitar. A drummer was brought in and Tired of Fighting was formed.
The band went on establish themselves as one of the most popular unsigned bands in the northeast of England, supporting national touring bands such as Mallory Knox along the way.
The band were soon ready to take their signature sound further afield, and with the help of management from Metathetic Music, were planning shows across the UK. However, the drummer was not able to commit in the way the band required him to and so parted ways with the band. Drummer Kev Nolan was brought in as a replacement and Tired of Fighting in it's current form, went on to tour the UK and release several singles which showcase the band's new found energy and passion.
Recent festival appearances with bands such as Trash Boat and Heriot gave Tired of Fighting a taste of what's to come. Get ready to feel all the emotions...
