‘Open Wide’ was produced by Kid Harpoon (Harry Styles/Florence & The Machine) and marks a giant leap forward for the band. Beginning work on it early this year in London, the band were encouraged to challenge themselves and take more creative control. Listening to a wide range of genres during writing - from techno to Nick Cave – inspired them to experiment with a brighter, timeless sound, adding texture to the record. The result is an album of 13 songs that feels unique - a guitar-driven pop album unlike any other, solidifying their status as one of the most exciting young bands today.  

INHALER are set to play their biggest ever UK tour in February which includes a headline show at the iconic rock venue Brixton Academy. Starting in Leeds on February 7th, the tour takes in eight cities, wrapping in Newcastle on February 19th. The band will then embark on a 15-date tour of Europe before heading to Japan in June. BLOSSOMS will be special guests on all tour dates in mainland Europe.

The Fan pre-sale for the UK & EU dates will start at 9:30am local time on Wednesday 6 November

The general on sale for the UK & EU dates will start at 9:30am local time on Friday 8 November

Since their career launched in 2018, INHALER have been among the biggest new names in guitar music, achieving commercial success with roaring chart positions. To date, they’ve sold over a quarter of a million records globally and garnered 500 million streams. Their debut album, It Won’t Always Be Like This, hit #1 in the UK and Ireland, while their 2023 follow-up, Cuts & Bruises, topped the Irish charts and reached #2 in the UK. To maintain this momentum, bandmates and childhood friends Hewson, Robert Keating, Ryan McMahon, and Josh Jenkinson have spent the past few whirlwind years on a relentless world tour, supporting acts like Arctic Monkeys, Pearl Jam, Harry Styles, and Kings of Leon, as well as headlining their own shows, including a sold out 13,000-capacity homecoming show at the Dublin 3Arena last year, their biggest headline show to date.
