Description
With a burst of frenetic energy new signings to Xtra Mile Recordings, Brand New Friend, propel into 2018 with Seatbelts For Aeroplanes released on April 27th. Their rapturous debut album is a supersonic ride fuelled by infectious punk laced pop and the first track from the album demonstrates that flare, Girl is 2 minutes of pure effervescence featuring singers Taylor and Lauren.
Playing to packed out venues the Northern Irish 4 piece have already earned an ardent fanbase, Irish Daily Mirror calling them "arguably the most talked about new band in the entire country" and early adopter Radio 1's Phil Taggart "there's a lot of vibes coming out of Northern Ireland about these guys right now." Further love at radio has come from Radio 1's Huw Stephens, 6Music's Tom Robinson, Radio X's John Kennedy and BBC Radio Ulster's 'Across The Line'. The band lit up BBC Introducing Stage at Radio 1's Big Weekend in Hull in May 2017 and later that summer hit Irish festivals Indiependence, Electric Picnic; Ones To Watch and played sold out headline shows in Belfast.
"With possibly the most rapturous frontman you've ever encountered, the four piece will find you bopping along and smiling from ear to ear when they play their elixir of fresh indie pop." - BBC Radio Ulster's 'Across The Line'
