THE VAN T'S BITTERSWEET
With some huge support slots for the likes of The Jesus and Mary Chain and Wolf Alice already under their belts, Glasgow 4-piece The Van T's seem to be gaining some serious momentum. 2016 saw the band picking up praise from Bella Union head honcho Simon Raymonde, Radio 1's Huw Stephens and BBC Introducing, making them ones to keep an eye on for this year. Their brand new single 'Bittersweet' is an explosive slice of surf-leaning psychedelic pop with attitude. Gritty guitars are offset by twin sisters Hannah and Chloe Van Thompson's catchy melodies and complimentary harmonies. Sitting somewhere between Wolf Alice and Dream Wife, 'Bittersweet' has got some bite to it as it powers towards a head-banging climax. Listen here now. -HLMX
