Track Of The Day: LUCIA – ‘Melted Ice Cream’

Discovered whilst busking in the streets of Glasgow, LUCIA‘s career has taken a remarkable turn since she released her debut EP Best Boy via indie label Dead Beet Records last year. The singer has supported Black Honey, The Big Moon and The Undertones on tour, and her sound has been described as encapsulating the “bubble-gum aesthetic of The Ronettes with the seething punk attitude of Bikini Kill”.

She’s set to release her new single ‘Melted Ice Cream’ tomorrow on Jan 12th, and she’ll be celebrating alongside her band tonight at The Old Blue Last with a headline show with support from Chemtrails and HUSSY (RSVP here). Listen to the track below and make sure you head down to the gig tonight to support her.

LUCIA 2018 Live Dates

11th January – Old Blue Last, London
25th January – Camden Assembly, London with Milk Disco

Track Of The Day: The Pearl Harts – ‘LARA’

Having formed in 2014, rock duo The Pearl Harts have already toured with the likes of Skunk Anansie and Garbage, and received acclaim from the likes of NME, Clash and Kerrang. Now, set to release their debut album next month, they’ve treated us to an attitude-filled new video for their latest single.

Oozing the band’s raw, raging power, ‘LARA’ is riotous slice of desert garage rock in the vein of American duo Deap Vally. Filled with instantly catchy hooks, heavy-duty pummelling beats and gritty, impassioned vocals, it immediately hits you with its intense wall of sound, blasting out a seething, empowering energy. Just one listen of ‘LARA’ and you’ll be hooked; hooked on the huge, soon-to-be-stadium-filling sound of The Pearl Harts.

Glitter & Spit, the upcoming debut album from The Pearl Harts, is out 23rd February.

Track Of The Day: The Go! Team – ‘All The Way Live’

With a brand new album due out later this month, musical collective The Go! Team have now shared a new single, following their last release ‘Mayday’.

Taken from their upcoming album, ‘All The Way Live’ is filled with all the uptempo break-beats and soaring, brass melodies you could ever desire. Racing with a frenzied energy and playful, vibrant joy, it fuses together elements of hip-hop, soul and pop to create another immediately infectious, dance-inducing earworm from this magnificent band. Of the track, Ian Parton explains:

“‘All the Way Live’ is just an all out brass attack set to some pretty cheeky rapping. Lots of the voices are sampled from a record made as a kinda after school hip hop project by students of Carver Senior High, Chicago in 1983. We managed to track down the teacher behind the project – Mr. Harris – to clear it. It wasn’t really the fact it was old skool that attracted me but the personality and cheekiness that was jumping off the vinyl…”

Semicircle, the upcoming album from The Go! Team, is out 19th January via Memphis Industries – pre-order here. And catch the band live:

09 Feb – Glasgow, Oran Mor
10 Feb – Leeds, Wardrobe
11 Feb – Brighton, Haunt
15 Feb – London, Electric Ballroom
16 Feb – Newcastle, Riverside
17 Feb – Manchester, Gorilla
