{NEW RELEASE}

Little Strange - Hard Days Hard Time’

Following on from their impressive self-produced single, 'I Get By', the band have not allowed the dust to settle before deciding on their next move. Produced by songwriter/guitarist, Olly Davis, this latest offering from Little Strange is an instant earworm. Driven by the thunderous rhythm section of Charlie Harris & Jack Clynes, Davis' fuzz-tinged guitar lines marry perfectly with Jamie Thompson's overdriven vocal tones to provide a heady cocktail; fitting enough to soundtrack the listener's next main character moment.

Catch them this Saturday at The Peer Hat supporting Midnight Rodeo >> https://linktr.ee/happydazetickets

Building on the excitement of their previous releases, this headstrong track is a true statement of intent from Little Strange. Combining a tasteful blend of tones with introspective lyricism, this is by far the band's most powerful release to date. As singer Jamie Thompson adds, "The cool answer would be to describe this one as, 'the little bastard brother of Arctic Monkeys' AM, raised by Hunter S. Thompson on a diet of B-movies', but truthfully, that isn't what this song is about. It's about being in your own head and doubting yourself."

Uninterested in fads and viral trends, the band's authenticity is what drives them forward. Adopting the mantra, 'alt-rock for all', the group's message is a simple statement of inclusivity which can be felt by the warmth generated by their crowds. Boasting a timeless sound which resonates with audiences of all ages and backgrounds, Little Strange are road-ready to play venues anywhere their journey takes them. Operating independently, the band are four friends simply doing it for themselves. Buckle up, The Strange are coming.

{NEW RELEASE}

Beige Banquet - Animals

Phantasmagoria 2023 headliners Beige Banquet have got a HEAVY new track just in time for you lot who are coming down to Hyde Park Book Club this coming Saturday.

Combining layers of noise and bursts of saturated percussion, with a driving rhythm section, Animals’ is a taste of the richer and more dynamic sound of their future releases. The track explores darker and more desolate themes and captures the uncompromising force of their live performances. Listen >> https://youtu.be/P045oviOixI?feature=shared

Having spent the last year doggedly touring Europe and taking their unmistakable and frenetic live show to festivals such as End of the Road, Left Of The Dial and Into the Great Wide Open, Beige Banquet are heading to Leeds for their FINAL show of the year.
