Brighton indie punks GENDER ROLES have released a video for their new single ‘Hey With Two Whys’, the second from their debut album, PRANG, which is set for release on 30th August via Big Scary Monsters. The track was championed as Rockest Record on the Radio 1 Rock Show last night, where Daniel P. Carter played it twice.
Following previous single ‘You Look Like Death’, which has seen support from the Radio 1 Rock Show, Huw Stephens, Steve Lamacq, Radio X’s John Kennedy, Kerrang! Radio’s Alex Baker, Amazing Radio and more, ‘Hey With Two Whys’ continues to deliver the band’s catchy hooks and uplifting melodies, whilst offering a glimpse into their quirky sense of humour.
“This next single ‘Hey With Two Whys’ is one that definitely stood out to all of us when we were recording it, we really love playing it live as well, it seems to be quite a ‘boogie’ tune,” explains guitarist/vocalist Tom Bennett.“We spent a few days travelling through Europe and spending any spare time having fun behind a camera. Then we ended up with a video.
Concluding on a thoughtful note, he adds: “Success is on a personal scale and if you stay true to your roots, you’ll always feel like a winner.”
