UPSTAIRS VENUE

-------
‘Sugar coated power-rock’ – Q Magazine

October Drift have shared their new single, ‘Losing My Touch’. The track is the first release since signing to their new label, Physical Education Records.

An immersive wall of distortion envelopes the powerful fragility of frontman Kiran Roy’s vocals, while he paints a verbal landscape of introspection, despair and hope amid a sonic palette that evokes both the driving, spacious absorptivity of My Bloody Valentine and the poetic, visceral honesty of Nick Cave’s lyricism.

‘Losing My Touch’ follows the band’s previous singles ‘All Broken Down’ and ‘Come And Find Me’, released to widespread acclaim last year. With influences as varied as The National, Radiohead, Interpol and Nick Drake, their heavy, pop-inflected rock is delivering a rejuvenating injection of fresh blood to the genre.

Dead Naked Hippies are relentless, punchy alternative-rock outsiders. The trio fronted by force-of-nature frontwoman Lucy Jowett will lull you in with subtlety before taking your head off with their wall of sound.

They are a force to be reckoned with live. With huge guitars, booming drums and Jowett’s banshee-like approach hitting hard, with freneticism and attitude to boot.
