The Shimmer Band playing This Feeling’s Big In 2017 at Nambucca, London (Alberto Pezzali for Live4ever)
The Shimmer Band‘s latest Jacknife and The Death Call is out today.
Complete with an official video, below, this follows some cracking single releases last year, including Sunkick which was the theme of our Presents feature with the band:
“Flattery get you everywhere, or at least leaping on the spot to a tune as spiked with festival zeitgeist as this. But seeing as that season is over, you’ll have to make do with catching the Bristolians at a gig and hope that they can fit that colossal-sounding choir at the end of the song on stage.”
“For a band not quite under the starlight yet, they know how to pull out a lot of stops.”
