  • Description

    Formed in 2003, The Hold Steady have released eight albums, numerous singles and played over 1000 shows. The Brooklyn-based band has performed in all 50 states in the USA and throughout Canada, Europe and Australia. The Hold Steady music has appeared across movies, advertising and TV, including on Game Of Thrones and Billions, in addition to writing original material for Seth Meyers cartoon The Awesomes and Meyers' 2019 stand-up comedy special Lobby Baby. Released in early 2021, The Hold Steady's most recent record Open Door Policy, achieved the band's highest chart position of any album, debuting #6 on the Billboard Current Album Chart. Vulture gushed the record "expands their horizons," and "gives the Hold Steady new heft and variety without undercutting the sharpness of the hooks or singer-guitarist Craig Finn's heart-wrenching novelistic lyricism." 2023 marks the 20th Anniversary of The Hold Steady and will see an expanded collection of activities and music release to celebrate the milestone with fans. Year five of The Weekender, The Hold Steady's annual visit to the UK with a 3-night stop in London, occurs March 10-12, 2023. The Hold Steady is: Bobby Drake (drums), Craig Finn (vocals), Tad Kubler (guitar, vocals), Franz Nicolay (keyboards, vocals), Galen Polivka (bass), and Steve Selvidge (guitar, vocals).
