New Hope Club Returns to Atlanta, GA

Saturday, July 30, 2022 — New Hope Club is a band that originates from Manchester and London, England. The members are Blake Richardson (Lead singer), Recce Bibby (Bassist), and George Smith (Guitarist).

At the start of the night, the band had a VIP session with a few fans. The VIP experience was super exciting as we got to know the band on a personal level. They answered questions, did a soundcheck, and even played some of their new album.

Once VIP was finished, I was taken backstage for a quick photo session with the boys. They were extremely nice and funny to be around.

After leaving from backstage and going back near the crowd you could feel the room was filled with anticipation and excitement, as we awaited the bands arrival.

At last, it was showtime! The vibe and energy in the room was exhilarating as they sang their hits “Love Again” and “Permission.”

Half-way into the show, they did a cover of Lizzo's hit song “About Damn Time.” This came as a complete surprise, and everyone loved it.

After the boys not being in Atlanta since 2017, this was definitely a highly anticipated show and they did not disappoint at all!

When the show finished, everyone headed outside to get a group picture with the band, taken by their photographer Joshua Fairbrother, and gave them goodbyes before they headed to their flight to Korea!
