We say

OUTLYA, the clandestine purveyors of star-spangled pop glory, follow up a succession of brilliant taster tracks Heaven, Higher and The Light, with the rousing global smash in waiting, Howl. Their new single through Closer Recordings via Virgin EMI packs an immediate punch with a singalong piano start, ascending into a rapturous pop-tinged banger with a catchy as hell chorus. Produced by Dan Grech-Marguerat (The Vaccines, Scissor Sisters, Radiohead), the track premiered on The Line of Best Fit, which hailed it a monumental pop jam. Already backed by online tastemakers including DIY Magazine, CLASH, Wonderland Magazine, All Things Go, The Tipping Point, Red Bull Music and God Is In The TV, the three-piece demonstrate Coldplay stadium filling ambitions and are no strangers to the live stage. Support slots with Dan Croll, Frances, Dagny and Maggie Rogers preceded summer festival appearances at The Great Escape, Latitude, Y Not Festival, Kendal Calling and Reading & Leeds. OUTLYA are an absolute "must-see" for anyone travelling to Hamburg for Reeperbahn Festival otherwise catch them headlining Camden Assembly on October 19.
