Lilac – Touch
It’s been a while since the brilliant Losing Myself (In You) single from Lilac which made our top 20 of 2022. However it was worth the wait, as they have just released their new single Touch, and it’s so good that it had to be lead track this week.
It has a quiet start with an impressive vocal before building into a powerful wall of indie rock sound and it has an excellent guitar solo too.
They performed a great set at Wokingham Festival recently and headline their own show at West End Centre, Aldershot this Saturday, so if you fancy some of their excellent floral indie sound get along there – https://lilacband.co.uk/
AlphaLine – Paper Cups
They made their debut festival appearance at Wokingham Festival and definitely made new friends there with an impressive performance.
They have just released their debut EP, Polarity, from which this track is taken.
It’s produced by Aaron Cilia and showcases the band’s intriguing sound which is a mixture of indie, prog, psychedelia, electronic and lots more – https://www.alphalineband.com/
