The band released their twelfth studio album, ‘Modern Nature,’ in January to great reviews, some citing it as their best ever. Q described the album as “one the finest of their career,” while the Guardian have called it “a triumph”. Their singles, So Oh, Come Home Baby, and Let The Good Times were well received at UK radio and all A-listed at BBC 6 Music. Following their sold out UK tour in March, the band were booked to appear on Later… With Jools Holland in April. The Charlatans are also nominated for best album and Tim Burgess for Indie Hero at The AIM Awards.
