Van Susans New Single, Seagulls Out Now
‘Driving hook-laden glory’ – Chris Hawkins BBC 6 Music
London based alternative folk-rock outfit, Van Susans, return with
new single SEAGULLS, digitally available on 29th APRIL 2016 on
Beatnik Geek Records.
The Van Susans are renowned for creating powerful, upbeat and hook-laden songs, packed full of soaring guitars and anthemic melodies and SEAGULLS doesn’t disappoint.
The bands last single LIPSTICK TEETH gained support at national radio, receiving plays on BBC 6 Music and XFM, whilst the video received over 40,000 hits on You Tube.
The core songwriting trio consists of frontman Olly Van Andrews with his rich, gravely vocals and trusty acoustic guitar; Ed Dullaway on piano and guitar (often at the same time), and classically trained Holly McLatchie, the Scottish femme fatale on violin, with Innes Christie and Harvey Simpson completing the quintet.
The new single, produced by John Cornfield (FOXES, RAZORLIGHT, MUSE) is a poignant song written about the pain of dealing with the loss of a loved one, after they have passed. With its engaging lyrics and beautiful instrumentation, alongside pounding piano and drumbeat throughout,
Van Susans have created a beautiful track that will have you singing along in seconds.
The popular five-piece, who hail from both the suburban outskirts of London and the rugged highlandsof Glasgow are renowned for their high-energy live shows.
