Scottish rock n roll band TONTO have released their new single “Liverpool“.
The track is the first single from their upcoming 5 track EP ‘Hope, Faith & Carnage‘, which will be out later this year. Grab it here.
Kieran Fisher, often known as ‘Feesh, has been kicking at the door of the big time for a while now supporting artists such as The Snuts and The View’s Kyle Falconer on several dates. Seeking a bigger sound, Kieran recruited Lyle Finlay on lead guitar, Lewis Mcgrandles on bass and Jason Strachan on drums.
Both the band’s debut single ‘Down the Hatch’ and follow-up ‘Insider’, received airplay in both the UK and USA. Recent drops ‘Madame Medusa’ and ‘Yellow and Blues’ have also got music industry insiders pretty excited.
On the live front TONTO have supported the likes of The Skinner Brothers, The Gulps and Rianne Downey, and the band are now back and raring to go with their first single of 2024, the just over two and a half minutes of high octane, frenzied drumming and electrifying guitars of “Liverpool“.
With indie oozing lyrics depicting tales of Liverpool you’re taken on a journey through its famous streets. With sudden breaks throughout, this track really engages and keeps your attention giving you a little mosh-pit breather, ready to kick it all off again and with the chanting outro of ‘It’s a long, long way to Liverpool’, we can see this track going down an absolute storm when performed live.
Speaking about it, the band said:
“The track was written as Kieran often travels to Liverpool and fell in love with the city to the point he almost moved there. The tracks are all about learning from mistakes and coming out the other side in a positive way.”
