“100% REAL...ROCK AS PURE AS THE DRIVEN SNOW...GENIUSNESS...RAW ENERGY...
CLASSIC ROCK RIGHT IN THE MODERN DAY...
ROCK IS NOT ONLY ALIVE, BUT IT’S AS NASTY AND IN-YOUR-FACE AS EVER”
THE CRITICS HAVE SPOKEN,
THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT IS THE REAL DEAL AND
THEY’RE BRINGING THE “FIREPOWER” TO THE U.S. FOR
A NEW ROUND OF HEADLINING TOUR DATES
“If
Rock ‘n’ Roll is to be saved, or even needs saving, bands like this
will lead the way...The band comes across as if they were spoon fed
classic guitar rock since the day they were born, and the beauty is that
they are 100% real – nothing slick, nothing corporate about
them...organic...Yup, this is rock as pure as the driven snow and sure,
they wear their roots on their sleeves, but they wear them damned well.
They have a genuineness that harkens back to The Stones, Free, then
later The Black Crowes, and now into the glorious teens. Phil Campbell
is THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT’s frontman and he has the full package—great
voice, looks like he belongs in front of a mic, and he writes straight
from the heart. His passion and enthusiasm comes across like a young Joe
Cocker, half in control, and halfway to the moon...As long as there are
bands like THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT, rock ‘n’ roll will never die.”

Pretty much sums up everything you need to know about THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT.
While
the U.K. band’s summer U.S. trek recently concluded and garnered rave
reviews at every stop, they’re not going to stay away for very long.
Touring in support of their critically acclaimed second album, WHITE BEAR,
THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT (vocalist Phil Campbell, bassist Nick Fyffe,
guitarists Paul Sayer and Matt White, drummer Damon Wilson) will
continue to bring the raucous new rock 'n roll animal to the U.S.
starting September 17 in Portland, ME at the Portland House of Music and
Events and concluding October 18 in Destin, FL at Club L.A.
WHITE BEAR--released
July 15 on Fantasy Records--is the highly anticipated follow up to
their critically acclaimed self-titled debut album, which spawned the
anthemic hit single, “Take It Back.” Fueled by their inclusion in
iHeartRadio’s ‘On The Verge’ developing artist program, the song quickly
reached the Top 10 on Billboard’s
Mainstream Rock Tracks chart last spring. Additionally, the band was
tapped by The Rolling Stones to be the opening act at their show in
Orlando, FL on June 12, 2015 at the Orlando Citrus Bowl. They had
previously opened for The Rolling Stones in 2014 in Berlin, Vienna,
Zurich and Dusseldorf.
After garnering stellar reviews overseas, WHITE BEAR has added praise by the U.S. media to the mix:
“...a lot of firepower and gusto – heavy, yet melodic and driving.”
-- Popdose.com
“Their new release features a dozen tracks of raw energy poured into each song.”
-- Record-Journal (CT)
“Getting
classic rock right in the modern day is a tricky task: it requires
injecting a sense of '70s spirit while bringing something fresh to the
table, but nobody treads the line quite so successfully as achingly
authentic U.K. blues-rockers THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT.”
-- MusicRadar.com
“WHITE BEAR
is the answer to all those naysayers who proclaim ‘Rock is dead.” THE
TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT is proof that rock is not only alive, but it’s as
nasty and in-your-face as ever. The only criticism that I can offer is
that WHITE BEAR should come with a label that says, ‘For Best Results, Play At Full Volume!’”
-- BluesRockReview.com
“With
a heavier sound and deeper lyrics, THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT have matured
quite nicely; at the same time, not losing any of the spirit and energy
they are known for. They’re just better and WHITE BEAR is the proof in the pudding.”
-- Glidemagazine.com
“...THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT has yet again become the rock n’ roll messiah for those weary souls yearning for genuine rock...WHITE BEAR has
breathed life back into what was a dwindling music scene.... For those
of you unfamiliar with the group, THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT will have you
remembering all the feelings you had the first time you heard rock n’
roll.”
-- ScreamerMagazine.com
And on the live front, THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT never disappoints. NationalRockReview.com
recently praised: “If you haven’t yet seen THE TEMPERANCE MOVEMENT
live, you should, if for no other reason than to witness the
fire-cracker performance of frontman, Phil Campbell. Even on their
slower songs, he can still be seen jumping and dancing around the stage,
waving his arms in the air... While The Temperance Movement are known
for having an energy-ball of a frontman, it would be unfair to reduce
them to a one-man band. Paul pulls out some of the funkiest guitar riffs
that you will hear. Add to that the perfectly timed rhythm section of
Nick Fyffe on bass and Damon Wilson on drums, and you get the
hard-hitting, punchy songs that have got this five-piece noticed. Their
chemistry on stage is infectious; the guys are clearly having a great
time.”
