Lauran Hibberd will open her UK tour on Saturday with a Liverpool gig at the Arts Club, the first of 8 UK dates.

The tour comes after the release of Lauran Hibberd’s outstanding debut album Garageband Superstar.

Speaking in the run up to the 12-track Garageband Superstar, Lauran Hibberd revealed “Garageband Superstar is dad rock for your daughters.  If you don’t get the feeling of relief similar to the one of undoing your jeans button after a big meal, I’d feel crushed. It’s a nod to all of my favourite 90’s sub genres, and the soundtrack to your next favourite trash TV show that no one else gets but you.

“There’s tracks about breaking your leg, falling off rollercoasters, taking off your pants, competing with Red Dead Redemption, boys in the supermarket, writing essays on Facebook walls, people who take leg days seriously, and the enigma of being a superstar. All pretty relatable stuff right?

“Beyond staining my pants excited to have Brendan B. Brown of Wheatus, DJ Lethal of Limp Bizkit and Viji featuring on this record. Music is more fun with friends. Hope you like it. Don’t tell me if you don’t. I’m insecure.”

The effortlessly cool Lauran Hibberd released Garageband Superstar on 18 August 2022.
