I Made My Excuses And Left

At The Lake

unsigned/Popfiction

WE SAY

This is the follow-up to These Days, which we featured last December. That single got playlisted at Xfm, and received support from Zane Lowe and Steve Lamacq. This is produced by Thomas Johansen (Boy Kill Boy), and the guys plan to record more tracks in the coming weeks with some more top producing talent. This is another refreshing tune from a band we're keeping our eye on, it reminds us of My Bloody Valentine or The Smiths at their most radio-friendly. JF London gigs: 23 June, Water Rats N1 & 4 July, Club Fandango Dublin Castle NW1
