Kickstarts

Data

WE SAY

Kickstarts is the third single from Example's forthcoming album Won’t Go Quietly and has had a great reaction on surfacing last week. Radio 1 plays included a Zane Lowe exclusive as the 'Hottest Record in the World' as well as Nick Grimshaw, Mistajam on 1Xtra and plays on Capital FM, Kiss and Galaxy too. It was Popjustice's Song of the Day last week also. With production by drum’n’bass producer Sub Focus, Kickstarts has the sound of a euphoric festival moment, and is a summer radio smash waiting to happen. Example's UK tour starts at the end of the month. JF London gig: May 20, Islington Academy N1
