Saturday’s post told you a bit about the SARAH RECORDS LABEL and a fairly obscure band – THE SWEETEST ACHE 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿.

Today’s follow up relates to an outfit fronted by former ACHE vocalist SIMON COURT.

Seems a few years ago he put together a new band and in 2019 released a self-titled LP. The band is called SOUNDWIRE.

I love this album. It makes me shout “Holy Spacemen 3 Batman” as the sound is clearly a nod to the famous band from Rugby. It is a massive change of direction from the dreampop of the SWEETEST ACHE.

[Ed. Note- SPACEMEN 3 🇬🇧 is one rex’s all time faves. Feel free to ask him for a quick tutorial.]

Here is one of many gems- “Dying Sun”

Now the band is about to return with their second long- player on March 14 and I am buzzing.

Here is lead single “Shake The Fever.” You be the judge…and let me know.
