About The Entitled Sons
Hailing from the gritty northern suburbs, The Entitled Sons burst onto the scene in the late 2010s, quickly establishing themselves as a force to be reckoned with in the rock and pop landscape. Comprising the charismatic frontman Leo Maxwell, guitar virtuoso Chloe Davies, the stoic rhythm section of bassist Sam “The Anchor” Jones, and drummer Maya Khan, their sound is a compelling fusion of stadium-rock grandeur and infectious pop hooks. Early EPs like “Echoes in the Void” garnered critical acclaim, but it was their debut album, “Broken Crowns,” that truly cemented their place, spawning instant classics such as “Midnight Parade” and the emotionally charged “Shattered Glass.”
Their style is characterised by Maxwell’s powerful, soaring vocals, Davies’ intricate yet explosive guitar riffs, and a rhythm section that provides a bedrock of pulsating energy. They effortlessly navigate the spectrum from introspective ballads to full-throttle rock anthems, all while maintaining a distinctive melodic sensibility. Their sophomore album, “Rebel Hearts,” further expanded their sonic palette, demonstrating a maturity and willingness to experiment without losing their core identity. With a reputation for exhilarating live performances, The Entitled Sons have cultivated a devoted fanbase, eager to experience their electrifying stage presence and sing along to every word. This Birmingham date promises to showcase their journey and their undeniable talent.
O2 Academy3 Birmingham: The Perfect Setting
Nestled within the iconic O2 Academy Birmingham complex on Horsefair, Bristol Street, the O2 Academy3 Birmingham (B1 1DB) offers an unparalleled intimate gig experience. While its larger siblings host major acts, Academy3 is a gem for those seeking a close-up encounter with their favourite bands, making it an ideal venue for The Entitled Sons’ powerful yet personal sound. With a capacity of just a few hundred, it ensures every fan feels connected to the performance, fostering an electric atmosphere that’s difficult to replicate in larger arenas.
The venue itself boasts a rich history, having evolved from its origins as the legendary Dome nightclub, a cornerstone of Birmingham’s music scene for decades. Today, O2 Academy3 retains that heritage of vibrant live music, providing a modern, well-equipped space while preserving an authentic, no-frills rock club feel. Its central location in Birmingham makes it incredibly accessible, and its design ensures excellent sightlines and acoustics, regardless of where you stand. The venue is also committed to accessibility, offering facilities for disabled patrons; it’s always advisable to contact the venue directly in advance for specific requirements.

What to Expect at the Show
Prepare for a visceral and unforgettable performance when The Entitled Sons take to the O2 Academy3 stage. Fans can anticipate a meticulously crafted setlist that masterfully blends their greatest hits with newer material, showcasing their artistic evolution. Expect to hear fan favourites like “Midnight Parade” and “Shattered Glass” alongside powerful tracks from “Rebel Hearts,” perhaps even a sneak peek at unreleased songs. Their live shows are renowned for their raw energy and emotional depth, promising a dynamic journey through their discography.
The stage production, while perhaps more intimate than a stadium show, will be no less impactful. Expect a carefully designed lighting scheme that enhances the mood of each song, from pulsating strobes during high-octane anthems to subtle, atmospheric washes for their more poignant moments. The true magic, however, will lie in the band’s magnetic stage presence and the palpable connection they forge with the audience. Singalongs will be mandatory, mosh pits might erupt, and the sheer collective energy of the crowd will elevate the experience to something truly special. This is a chance to witness a band at the peak of their powers, delivering a night of pure rock-pop exhilaration.
