Tigercub have been making music since 2011. They have supported acts such as Royal Blood, Peace, The Bronx, Blood Red Shoes, Pulled Apart by Horses, Benjamin Booker, Deap Valley, and Dinosaur Pile-Up.
In 2014 they began to raise their profile nationwide after being asked to be sole support on Royal Blood's UK tour, this led to the band signing a publishing deal with and releasing their debut single 'Blue Blood' through Raygun. 'Blue Blood' was quickly picked up by DJ's at Radio 1. Zane Lowe made Tigercub his 'Next Hype' and played 'Blue Blood' every week on his show for 3 weeks, in addition to Phil Taggart and Alice Lavigne, who played 'Blue Blood' a number of times on Radio 1. 'Blue Blood' was playlisted at Amazing Radio (B-list) and also received worldwide airplay on Sat Bisla's 'Passport Approved' show which aired on 30 established stations worldwide including KCRW and KROQ in the US.
After wide blog coverage in the 405, CLASH, DIY and Q, and regular mentions in NME (including 'Band Crush' features from both Royal Blood and The Maccabees) Tigercub toured Germany, The Netherlands and Belgium as support for Blood Red Shoes and released their 2nd single 'Centrefold' on Blood Red Shoes' own label Jazz Life, releasing a limited run of 300 7"'s. 'Centrefold' picked up 10,000 soundcloud plays in it's first week, was featured as No.2 in NME'S on-repeat section and received yet more airplay on Zane Lowe's show.
