Formed in 2018, Stay For Tomorrow are an energetic four piece alternative rock band emerging from Dunfermline, Scotland. Consisting of vocalist and rhythm guitarist Joe MacFarlane, lead guitarist Nic Holson, keyboardist Gemma Wickham and drummer Sean Priestley. For fans of Biffy Clyro, Foo Fighters and Velvet Revolver, SFT look to create epic, fresh alt rock songs with their own signature sound that will make you wish you discovered them sooner!
They burst onto the Fife scene in 2019 with their debut single Kings and Queens. Several singles later (Rumours + Criminal) we fast forward to 2021 with the releases I Don't Need You To Save Me, Non Applicable (Na Na) and The One. In 2022 the band released tracks Prison Living and Lipstick Lips. In 2023 they re-recorded and released their debut single Kings and Queens (2023 Version) coupled with a physical release of the album The Story So Far - a collection of all of the previously released singles! This was quickly followed by the single Always You which saw the band raise their profile and progress further with record amounts of airplay and streaming numbers! Pick Me Up was then released in November as they kicked off their third mini English tour and knocked all numbers that Always You had set out the park. This was then followed by their rock anthem “Crushing Down” which saw incredible radio support including being featured on ex Kerrang and Planet Rock radio host Emma Scott's Plugginbaby show.
Stay For Tomorrow have supported a number of big acts such as Inglorious, Massive Wagons, Who Saves The Hero? and Anchor Lane and have also performed at iconic Scottish venues such as King Tuts Wah Wah Hut, The Mash House and PJ Molloys. In 2022 the band made their mark on the Scottish festival scene where they played Bonfest and since then have played Winterstorm and ButeFest. They won the Best Music Video (Lipstick Lips) award at The Lowlands Music Awards 2023 and were nominated for Best Rock Act.
The band headed out on their first English tours in 2023 and have more shows planned for 2024. Watch this space, Stay For Tomorrow.
