Set to be released this Friday, the track is the second single taken from Dave Jackson and Paul Cavanagh (from 80s post-punk band The Room) new album 'We're the Martians, now.' out on April 10th via A Turntable Friend Records. Pre-order it here.
Stomping beats with nods to glam rock, name-checking T-Rex, 70s reminiscence and youth gang flair - all the right ingredients for a 3 minute POP song !
About the track, frontman Dave Jackson says the following: “My youth, growing up in Liverpool in 70s. The music was always Tamla, Glam Rock etc blaring loud. An era where gangs of smoothies, troggs and grebos roamed the parks you had to bribe over 18s to get you alcohol from off licences. Big party seven pint cans of beer that you had to open with a screwdriver and a brick when you realised no one had brought an opener. Being chased by gangs of boot boys and the mysterious magic of being out in the night when you’re young, doing stuff you’re not supposed to.”
