New Entry: The Rotanas Premiere New Single "Get The Call"

Cardiff based indie rock band The Rotanas have premiered their new single "Get The Call".

Get The Call written by new band member Aaron Tormey, is infused with '90s indie, psychedelic and shoegaze elements. He says the track, for him, is loosely about putting effort into something but questioning if it's what you're meant to be doing in life and whether it's worth the struggle. But song meanings can be interchangeable from person to person, and he adds that "personally, I like to be quite ambiguous when speaking of the inspiration and meaning behind tracks as I like to let the listener interpret it how they see fit."

New Entry: The Rotanas Share New Single "Spinner"

Cardiff based indie rock band The Rotanas have shared their brand new single "Spinner".

The song, recorded by Richard Jakson (Pretty Vicious, The Automatic, Super Furry Animals), mixed by Nick Brine (Oasis, The Stone Roses, The Verve), and mastered by Pete Maher (The Rolling Stones, U2), is out today (January 22). Get it here.

UPDATE 25/01/2021: "Spinner" is out new Single of the Week!

Speaking of the inspiration behind the song songwriter James Wilson commented: 'Spinner' is a song about the talentless deceivers in the music industry who try to sell you a dream and manipulate you for their own benefits which are often financial. They hide in the darkness and as soon as they see a glimmer of success they make their move.”

The Rotanas class their sound as Gritpop, a sound which is both gritty and smooth; instantly catchy but also subtle and sophisticated.
