They are known for their fusion of shoegaze, alternative, Britpop, and 90s influences. After releasing several singles, the band&#8217;s first album was released in 2013, titled <em>Lixiviate<\/em>. Over the years, they have released several more albums and an EP, the latest release was the album <em>DeepDarkCreepLove<\/em> in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>Between these releases, the band toured the United Kingdom and also performed across mainland Europe and the United States. Their connection with the United Kingdom remained strong, since they have been releasing their music via the British independent record label Club AC30 since they joined the label at the end of 2011. Taffy\u2019s current line-up consists of Iris on vocals, Rio on guitar, Takeshi on bass guitar, and Ken on drums.<\/p>\n<h3>Taffy UK Tour 2024 Dates<\/h3>\n<p>Dinsdag 30 juli 2024: The Victoria &#8211; Birmingham, Verenigd Koninkrijk<br \/>\nZondag 4 augustus, 2024: Kendal Calling &#8211; Hackthorpe, Verenigd Koninkrijk<br \/>\nDinsdag 6 augustus, 2024: Billy Bootleggers &#8211; Nottingham, Verenigd Koninkrijk<br \/>\nWoensdag 7 augustus, 2024: The Black Heart &#8211; Londen, Verenigd Koninkrijk<br \/>\nVrijdag 9 augustus, 2024: Concorder 2 &#8211; Brighton, Verenigd Koninkrijk<br \/>\nZaterdag 10 augustus, 2024: Lakefest &#8211; Herefordshire, Verenigd Koninkrijk<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It has been a few years since the alternative pop\/rock band Taffy toured the United Kingdom\u2014five years if memory serves\u2014but at the end of July they are back for several performances.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":87358,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jnews-multi-image_gallery":[],"jnews_single_post":{"source_name":"Taffy","source_url":"https:\/\/x.com\/taffy8tw\/status\/1814291239602463097","via_name":"","via_url":"","override_template":"0","override":[{"template":"2","single_blog_custom":"","parallax":"1","fullscreen":"1","layout":"right-sidebar","sidebar":"default-sidebar","second_sidebar":"default-sidebar","sticky_sidebar":"1","share_position":"top","share_float_style":"share-monocrhome","show_share_counter":"0","show_view_counter":"0","show_featured":"1","show_post_meta":"1","show_post_author":"1","show_post_author_image":"1","show_post_date":"1","post_date_format":"default","post_date_format_custom":"Y\/m\/d","show_post_category":"1","show_post_reading_time":"1","post_reading_time_wpm":"300","post_calculate_word_method":"str_word_count","show_zoom_button":"1","zoom_button_out_step":"2","zoom_button_in_step":"3","show_post_tag":"1","show_prev_next_post":"1","show_popup_post":"1","number_popup_post":"1","show_author_box":"1","show_post_related":"1","show_inline_post_related":"0"}],"override_image_size":"0","image_override":[{"single_post_thumbnail_size":"no-crop","single_post_gallery_size":"crop-715"}],"trending_post":"0","trending_post_position":"meta","trending_post_label":"Trending","sponsored_post":"0","sponsored_post_label":"Sponsored by","sponsored_post_name":"","sponsored_post_url":"","sponsored_post_logo_enable":"0","sponsored_post_logo":"","sponsored_post_desc":"","disable_ad":"0"},"jnews_primary_category":{"id":"","hide":""},"jnews_social_meta":[],"jnews_override_counter":{"override_view_counter":"0","view_counter_number":"0","override_share_counter":"0","share_counter_number":"0","override_like_counter":"0","like_counter_number":"0","override_dislike_counter":"0","dislike_counter_number":"0"},"footnotes":""},"categories":[3977],"tags":[5965,5782,6174,5879,6082,5693],"class_list":["post-87352","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-japanese-events-music","tag-alternative-rock","tag-indie-pop","tag-post-punk-en","tag-rock-en","tag-shoegaze","tag-taffy-en"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/87352","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=87352"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/87352\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":87365,"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/87352\/revisions\/87365"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/87358"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=87352"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=87352"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/avo-magazine.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=87352"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
