Mirrorkicks - 100% home-grown, organic British talent. An indie/rock band who are making quite a name for themselves as they surge up through the UK music scene with their vibrant live performances and single releases. Now, this self made London band deliver their best work to date in the form of their debut album, ‘Mirrorkicks’, released on 19 April on Fruit Pie Records.
Produced in a DIY basement-studio in the urban sprawl of south London, ‘Mirrorkicks’, is a musical demonstration of how four normal London boys can turn their dream into reality. Proudly showcasing the Mirrorkicks’ first two singles, the addictively anthemic debut, ‘Turning Up’, alongside the effervescent follow-up, ‘Anything’, this album shows diversity and talent by the bucket load. Each track delves into a pocket-sized life-experience, from topics such as the longevity of life in, ‘Too Slow’, life’s paranoia and conflict in, ‘Last Man Standing’, right through to subconscious dream-experiences in, ‘Lego’ and the importance of being true to yourself in the forthcoming single, ‘Podium’, (released 12 April). With vocals akin to an unlikely fusion of the grittiness of Sting and the heady falsetto-heights of Justin Hawkins, mingled with a sound that’s reminiscent of The Boomtown Rats mixed with The Police, ‘Mirrorkicks’, fuses the cream of by-gone inde-rock idols, to create a collection of contemporary tracks that will be re-played well into the future.
