Basement Tapes presents:
Gentlemen
*’Stray Rider’ Single Launch*
Australian/UK collective Gentlemen have rapidly gained kudos as one of London’s most exciting upcoming acts.
Debuting with the self-produced, film-noir inspired double EP Night Reels, they soon earned nods from the likes of The Guardian, Zane Lowe, BBC 6 Music, KEXP, The 405, The Line of Best Fit and NME, followed swiftly by an invitation to record a Daytrotter session. The band’s prog-riff-laden third single “Gentle Duke” excited Zane Lowe to such an extent he treated his BBC Radio 1 listeners to his own live-to-air remix.
Their most recent intensive studio adventures have found them channeling deeper and groovier regions of their record collections and psyches. The resulting new single ‘Stray Rider’ sees Gentlemen emerge with a bolder and wiser sound, and a freshly tuned line up.
‘Frankly, brilliant’ – The Guardian
‘Crammed full of infectious riffs and hooks that shimmer across a sonically charged soundscape of psychedelia’ – The Line of Best Fit
‘Deductive, laid-back indie-pop at its finest’ – The 405
Support TBA – keep an eye on the Facebook event page for updates..
