Former Foals bassist Walter Gervers has rejoined the band forward of their upcoming gigs. The band have been making ready for a sequence of intimate out-store exhibits within the UK earlier than supporting Paramore in South America and later headlining Studying & Leeds. Gervers had left the group in 2017 to “pursue a brand new life”.
Frontman Yannis Philippakis made the announcement about Gervers’ return in an Instagram publish of the Foals members with Gervers within the pub. The band has been working as a trio since keyboardist Edwin Congreave left in 2021 to pursue his research and environmental work. Chatting with NME in 2019, Philippakis stated, “Walter was most likely the nicest member of Foals, so with out him, you’re left with 4 sharp edges in a room.”
Foals have launched the dub remix of their album ‘Life Is Yours’ for the 2023 Document Retailer Day releases. Philippakis mentioned their plans for touring with Paramore and headlining Studying & Leeds for a second time in an interview with NME.
