The Darkness: the success of the tour is Taylor Swift’s “merit”

JUstin Hawkins of the The Darkness said that Taylor Swiftsinging the song “The Believe in a Thing Called Love“, 2003 hit by Rocker, at the US Open of September 2024, has” influenced “the sale of the tickets of their” Dreams on toast “tickets (which has the same title as the album published today by the band).

Justin Hawkins, The Darkness Frontman, says that Taylor Swift has caused a “tangible sales peak” of the “Dreams on toast” tour. The pop star of “Cruel Summer” and her boyfriend Travis Kelce were spotted and taken while singing and dancing the single of the band and a few seconds of the video became viral on social media.

Justin, founder, singer and guitarist of the group three times winner of the Brit Award, admitted that it is a “huge thing” for the band. Speaking with the Irish Examiner, he said: “It was a huge thing, there is no doubt. He influenced the way the tour was sold, but not directly. At Christmas, when they commission the television apparitions, they say: ‘What happened this year? Oh, this happened, then we show the darkness”, and this caused a surge in sales “. Taylor was, directly and indirectly, a huge bonus for us “.

Another factor that contributed to the success of the tour sales is the fact that Justin became an internet phenomenon with his YouTube channel “Justin Hawkins Rides Again“, which contains video of the fifty -year -old musician. Justin said:” I noticed it last year, when we had our most intense summer in the festival circuit. “People approached and said: ‘I love your YouTube channel’. He wasn’t ‘I love your band’. It is obviously good for the band.”

The frontman of The Darkness believes that the album “Dreams on toast“be” a creative triumph “and hopes that it will come to the first place after the exit. He added:” It is probably our best job “.
