The rising all-female band candidly spoke about the harsh realities of life on the road for musicians.
Bassist and backing vocalist Alex Thompson mentioned to host Giles Bidder that they had expected the tour to leave them with a decent “pot of money.”
“We just got off tour with Volbeat,” she said. “We did two months in arenas and stadiums. You know, we played Wembley [Arena]. We got to the end of it, the fees are much nicer than we would have ever been before, really.”

At the time, they were also unemployed because they had to quit their jobs to join the tour.
“So we’re broke as f—k and we just did two months in arenas,” the singer confessed, adding, “We also can't get a job because we're back on tour in March, so nowhere will hire us.”

Witch Fever is signed under Music For Nations, a subsidiary of Sony Music.
