"It felt like I was listening to a greatest hits album first time of hearing" - John Davis - Metropolis Music
Rising alternative rock band TV Pins are set to release catchy third single 'Bye Bye Reseda' on October 11th, the latest offering from their highly anticipated debut album 'Aircutter'.
Set against a dystopian backdrop, 'Bye Bye Reseda' transports listeners to an alternate reality where the United States has become a dictatorship. In this world, the supreme leader has transformed the entire southern states into one massive golf course named after his favourite Los Angeles suburb. While the residents of Reseda are forced into servitude, working as caddies, bartenders and exotic dancers for less than minimum wage, one brave couple make their escape for the coast.
The new single showcases TV Pins' unique blend of influences, drawing inspiration from iconic acts such as Interpol, The Killers, Supertramp, and Vegas-era Elvis. It is further elevated by the addition of a powerful brass section, adding depth and richness to their already distinctive sound. A track that was made for driving down Route 66.
With a wealth of experience in the music industry behind them, TV Pins announced themselves to the world at the start of the decade, and have gone from strength to strength with each passing year. The easy-on-the-ear vocals of lead singer James Schofield meet the melodic prowess of Duncan O’Neill, Miles Nicholas, Simon Hudson and Grace Bailey-Hinks to create an uplifting classic sound on full display throughout their upcoming first full-length album Aircutter, which will be out on 25th October. Having already gained a reputation for their energetic live shows, this is only just the beginning for TV Pins.
‘So much time, effort and love has gone into these tunes. We're beyond thrilled that Aircutter is finally going to see the light of day and we are busting to get out there to play it live. It's been a glorious evolution of fun and work bringing our debut album to the world.’ – TV Pins
