Stockport indie rock/alt The Rolling People have shared their new single “The Thief“.
The track is out now through LAB Records and is taken from their upcoming, debut EP Before It’s Gone. Get it here.
Gathering up main stage and major venue experiences without flinching, The Rolling People look back at their busier-than-ever recent months and outings on stages such as Manchester’s O2 Victoria Warehouse, supporting high-charting label mates, The K’s, while looking ahead to festival season and their debut at the Isle of Wight Festival.
The band’s infectious energy, compact songwriting and pin-sharp performances open up the wide roads of possibility ahead. Acerbic, direct and influenced by the great and good of pulse-quickening rock and roll, frontman, Charlie McNichol’s words and magnetic stage presence provides a totemic focus.
Of the single, McNichol says:
“’The Thief’ is a song that we’ve had for a long time in our live set but we haven’t got around to recording it until recently. It focuses on the power struggle that the common man has with those in charge and is a sort of spit at the people who are pulling the strings from above. It’s our most rocking tune yet and we can’t wait to get it going at the live shows.”
