Following hot on the heels of our Bubblegum Lemonade / Math and Physics Club / The Steinbecks 7” trifecta, we are thrilled to announce another exclusive new 7” from a brand new Matinée band! Seabirds are a five piece guitar pop band from Nottingham, England who make melodic pop songs with loud guitars. Think Belle and Sebastian if they grew up in a tougher part of town or those early classics from Voxtrot and you’re nearly there. The band was selected to play the Indietracks Festival this summer so you have a chance to catch them live this coming Sunday at 1:40 pm on the outdoor stage if you are heading that way.
The debut Seabirds single is called ‘Real Tears’ (matinée 090) and it will be out in September but we’re so excited about this we couldn’t keep it to ourselves any longer. The A-side is now featured on our Soundcloud and the player below so check it out so you can sing along on Sunday. There is another ace track on the B-side called ‘Oh Buoy’ but you’ll have to wait to hear that one. The 7” is being pressed on transparent sea blue vinyl in a limited edition of 500 hand-numbered copies. We will confirm the official release date and begin taking preorders next month so watch this space for more details. In the meantime, have a listen to ‘Real Tears’ right here:
The band has also just completed a video for the song and you can watch it now:
