Millie Manders & The Shutup Announce “Choose The Bear” Spring 2025 UK Tour

Millie Manders & The Shutup will follow the release of their highly acclaimed second album Wake Up, Shut Up, Work with the release of Me Too, the fourth and final single and video from the album, that will feature an acoustic version of the track on the flip side. The release will come in conjunction with their Choose The Bear Tour in the Spring which will raise money for Sexual and Domestic Abuse charities via a new Angry Ted Plushie bear. The bear will be strictly limited to 500 with £6 from each one being donated to The Survivors Trust, Refuge and Beyond The Streets with the aim of raising £1000 for each charity.

“We really felt Me Too needed to be a single, even beyond the album’s release, because of the potential to use it to raise money and support survivors of rape and domestic abuse. We know the title of the song is controversial but, in a time where violence towards women is only escalating, we felt the statement was a necessary one to put out into the world.” (Millie Manders)

Wake Up, Shut Up Work is the follow up to their Telling Truths, Breaking Ties debut, both albums are available on CD and vinyl here as well as from a host of independent record stores and all major streaming and download platforms. The band have also been added to the 2025 iterations of Manchester Punk Festival and Rebellion Festival.
