Belle and Sebastian, Palais Theatre, 23rd August 2024 by Mary Boukouvalas
The release of ‘Late Developers’ coming hot off the heels of their 2022 album ‘A Bit Previous’, showcased Belle and Sebastian’s continued sense of artistic growth and songwriting talent. A band who has consistently remained in sync and rhythm with each other, and a core creative vision, Belle and Sebastian’s current oeuvre has been a joy for longtime and new fans alike to be absorbing.
