Rising Manchester four-piece Larkins release their new track ‘Pieces’- the second offering from their second EP due early 2020.
An exciting reputation is already being formed – their arena-scale blend of anthemic, synth-laden alt-pop reverberating with a growing number of kids with each subsequent release. Their two offerings for 2019 – the ‘TV Dream’ EP and the ‘Not Enough Love’ single have already amassed 5M streams and counting.
Following the release of their recent track ‘Make You Better’, the band drop their newest offering ‘Pieces’ on Good Soldier Records. A jagged, synth-laden release, the mix of melodic futurism and lead vocalist Josh Noble’s vulnerable performance will continue the attention swirling around them right now.
Drawing critical attention from the likes of early tastemakers incl. THE LINE OF BEST FIT and DORK as well as BBC Radio 1 (Jack Saunders) and Beats 1 (Zane Lowe), 2019 has seen Larkins sell out their homecoming show at Manchester’s Albert Hall and with festival dates including SXSW, Reading and Leeds – it feels like Larkins are a force of nature building something special.
Originally from Glossop in Derbyshire before moving to Manchester, Josh Noble and Dom Want (guitar/synth) first started making music together at school, broadening their sound with the addition of Henry Beach (bass/synth) and Joe Gaskell (drums) to begin to craft music that’s huge, layered and mixing the kind of natural melody and tempo that will conjure relevant comparisons to the likes of Klaxons and The 1975.
