Alt-pop four-piece band Only The Poets have hit fans with a double whammy by announcing both a brand new single and a UK Tour.
The Reading-based outfit – consisting of frontman Tommy Longhurst, bassist Andy “Roo” Burge, guitarist Clem Cherry, and drummer Marcus Yates – fresh off a highly successful 2023 which saw them play to 20,000 people across 10 countries, while racking up 10 million streams on Spotify, are pleased to announce the euphoric-sounding track One More Night as their latest single.
The track sees Longhurst reminiscing about lost summer evenings while his bandmates provide some truly anthemic-sounding backing for his vocals.
Speaking on the inspiration behind the song Longhurst says “It’s a track about living in the moment. Remembering those nights where nothing else matters and everything felt like it was going to be okay. Those nights that, unknown to you at the time, turned out to be one of the best moments of your life.”

The band will be bringing their ever-growing collection of hits to UK audiences this June after wrapping up their 22-date European tour in April. They will be looking to continue building their growing reputation as live performers, having sold out last year’s UK tour, drawing the largest crowd on BBC’s Introducing Stage at Reading Festival in the process.
This year’s tour sees the band cover the length of the UK over the course of seven dates, kicking off in London on 5th June and wrapping in Southampton on the 13th – full dates below!
