Following a raucous headline show at London’s Brixton Academy last month, The Snuts have teamed with rising alternative artist Rachel Chinouriri on uplifting new single ‘End Of The Road’. The single, which Rachel joined the band onstage to perform at Brixton Academy in April, is the third taste of new music since their acclaimed, number 1-selling debut album, W.L. The band are currently in the studio working on the follow-up to W.L.
Produced by Detonate and Coffee at London’s infamous Abbey Road Studios and premiered on Clara Amfo’s Radio 1 show, ‘End Of The Road’ is an anthem for the broken-hearted. A song full of hope, lead singer Jack Cochrane said of the track “End of The Road is intended to be a musical antidote. A remedy for heartache. We wanted the track to be direct and truly versify a sense of self forgiveness and redemption.’ He continues, ‘The soothing tones of our friend Rachel Chinouriri, who features heavily in the song, helps inject an almost confessional burst of light throughout.”
“This song came about quite spontaneously which is sometimes how the best things come about,’ Rachel Chinouriri said. ‘I really loved it when I first heard it and when I met the boys the lyrics and melody came to us so naturally. You can hear the difference in mine and Jack’s accents, which I think adds something unique to the song. Glasgow and London truly combine so well here.’
Never content to stay still, ‘End Of The Road’ is a further evolution of the band both sonically and lyrically. The track follows their ferocious, protest song ‘Burn The Empire’ and the politically charged probe into social media, ‘Zuckerpunch’.
The Snuts are well and truly into their stride. With a chart-topping album under their belts and an arsenal of adoring fans up and down the country, these four lads from Whitburn, West Lothian, are well on their way to being one of the most vital bands of recent years.
