Edging closer to the release of their highly anticipated ‘One More Night’ EP out May 31st, alt-pop four-piece Only The Poets provide the next exuberant instalment, ‘All This Time’
Listen HERE / Pre-Order EP HERE.
Featuring the euphoric singles, ‘I Don’t Wanna Be Your Friend’, ‘One More Night’ & ‘Gone By Now’ plus three other rip-roaring songs, the ‘One More Night’ EP sees the band at their most captivating, consolidating their electrifying synth-pop sound and illuminating the heartfelt emotion in their lyrics.
“We’ve taken a lot of our influences from stuff we’re listening to now intertwined with Brit-pop and experimented with vocal layers and harmonies,” says frontman Tommy Longhurst. “At the back of our minds we’re constantly thinking about how these songs will sound live. We really wanted to go for that big, expansive stadium filler sound.”
Travelling from country to country, the new EP was recorded on the road, the band setting up recording equipment and cutting vocals whilst touring “We’re excited that so much of this EP was done just the four of us, and a lot of the production was done by Marcus (drums) and Clem (guitar). Feeling inspired and recording whilst playing shows was a cool way of working, we’d not done that before.”
2024 has already seen the band kick off a massive run of 22 European shows taking in venues across the continent including Milan, Krakow, Berlin, Prague, Oslo and Krakow. In June the band will play a string of shows across London, Birmingham, and Oxford, with further dates scheduled for August around their appearance at Reading & Leeds Festivals.
