We say

Chained To Love is the gutsy and ferocious new single from Bristol-based songwriting duo Foreign Affairs. Penned by brothers Adam and Lawrence, the single moves away from traditional drums and leans on a cinematic, stomp and holler style percussion backed by some gritty driving bass and gospel group vocals. With its cinematic flair, Chained To Love is a bluesy and rousing affair with echoes of the rockier Royal Blood and the soulful Rag’n’Bone Man.  Having received previous support on Radio 2 (Bob Harris & Dermot O’Leary), BBC Introducing, BBC Scotland, BBC Radio Ulster and Spotify (Nu-Blue), we reckon the song would fit well on bluesy and alternative playlists, along with continued support at Radio 2 and BBC Introducing, plus spins on 6 Music too. Their music has also had recent syncs on BT Sport (Europa League/Premier League) and BBC Match of the Day).  Next up for the duo is some time in the studio to work on their debut album, ready for a release in Q3 next year. So if you like the sound of this, keep your ears tuned for new music in the new year.
