Our Take

Ah, the cheeky lads and lasses of BRAND NEW FRIEND have returned with their latest offering, "Grandstandin." This album is like a cheeky donkey kicking you in the eardrum - in the best possible way, of course.

From the rollicking opener "Talk Talk Talk" to the infectious hooks of "Nothing Stays the Same," BRAND NEW FRIEND have crafted a collection of songs that will have you tapping your foot and bobbing your head in no time. It's like a whirlwind tour of British indie rock, with a touch of the band's signature charm and wit thrown in for good measure.

Lead vocalist Taylor Johnson's voice is a perfect blend of snarl and sweetness, while the rest of the band provide a tight, energetic backdrop for his lyrics to soar. Each song is a little slice of joy, like a proper cup of tea on a rainy day.

Standout tracks like "Girl" and "A&E" showcase the band's knack for crafting catchy, anthemic tunes that are sure to be stuck in your head for days. And don't even get me started on the pure bliss of "Seventeen," a shimmering gem of a track that will have you feeling like you're floating on cloud nine.

In conclusion, "Grandstandin" is a rollicking good time from start to finish. So grab a pint, crank up the volume, and let BRAND NEW FRIEND sweep you off your feet with their infectious, irreverent charm. Cheers!

About the artist

Brand New Friend

Brand New Friend may sound like a band straight out of a teenage rom-com, but don't let their name fool you - these Northern Irish indie rockers are anything but cliché. Hailing from Castlerock, Brand New Friend consists of siblings Taylor and Lauren Johnson, along with their childhood friends Aaron Milligan and Luke Harris. With infectious melodies and unapologetically catchy choruses, Brand New Friend are a breath of fresh air in the often overly serious world of indie rock. Their sound is a delightful mix of 90s nostalgia and modern indie sensibilities, with influences ranging from The Cranberries to The Strokes. Not content with simply making great music, Brand New Friend infuse their live performances with a sense of reckless abandon that is sure to get even the most stoic crowd dancing. Taylor's energetic vocals and snappy guitar riffs are complemented perfectly by Lauren's powerhouse drumming, while Aaron and Luke provide a solid backbone with their bass and rhythm guitar. Despite their relatively young ages, Brand New Friend have already made a name for themselves in the UK music scene, with accolades from BBC Radio 1 and support slots with the likes of Snow Patrol and Kodaline. With their debut album "Seatbelts for Aeroplanes" receiving rave reviews, it's safe to say that Brand New Friend are poised for big things in the world of indie rock. So, hop in, fasten your seatbelts, and get ready for a wild musical ride with Brand New Friend.
