English band Rivertairs releases 'Jack'
Longing for Liverpool? English pop band, the Rivertairs will take you there.
English band Rivertairs are on a voyage of musical discovery, channeling influences from rock n’ roll through to psychedelia to create what they describe as "a soundscape of many colours".
Their musical odyssey began at Warth Mill in Saddleworth, Greater Manchester, where passion and persistence weaved together an exciting prospect. Having a variety of influences from The Kinks to Small Faces to The Ghost of a Saber Tooth Tiger to Temples, the band found themselves on the same page writing songs containing vivacious vocals, whimsical guitar parts, punchy bass lines, shimmering keys, vintage beats and shaking tambourines. These writing sessions led to the creation of their first three-track demo, 2013's ‘Fool’s Parade’.
A number of gigs around the north followed, which included a support slot for nineties Liverpool band ‘Space’ and a show with the illustrious UK music promoters ‘This Feeling’, where the band gained praise from BBC Radio 6 Music presenter Chris Hawkins.
Early 2014 saw Rivertairs writing tirelessly to produce a catalogue of new music. 'Jack' is the first of these new songs to be released; a tongue in cheek vignette centred on the infamous Jack the Ripper.
Describing their new single, Rivertairs say 'Jack' is "a suspenseful sonance plucking the strings of imagination".
