02 Awards show & new single 'It's Thunder and It's Lightening'
A word of mouth hit that is still rolling out, the Edinburgh school friends debut long-player ‘These Four Walls’, released in June, explodes thunderously with colossal choruses, the romanticism and accessibility of a pure pop sensibility never hidden too deep, aided and abetted by Ken Thomas’ (Sigur Ros, Cocteau Twins, David Bowie etc) and Peter Katis’ (Frightened Rabbit, The Twilight Sad, The National etc.) studio mastery.
We Were Promised Jetpacks have emerged as serious contenders to the indie/ post-rock crown, and tour the UK as youthful but already seasoned veterans following their rite-of-passage USA tour with labelmates Twilight Sad, Frightened Rabbit and Brakes.
To co-incide with the latest run of dates the band announce the release of a new single ‘It’s Thunder and It's Lightening’ through FatCat on 23rd November.
