BLACK COUNTRY NEW ROAD FOR THE FIRST TIME SEALED LTD COLOURED White VINYL LP. Condition is "New".

Black Country, New Road is a new seven-piece: Charlie (Drums), Georgia (Violin), Isaac (Guitars/Vocals), Lewis (Saxophone), May (Synthesiser), Luke (Guitar) and Tyler (Bass). Latest stars from the burgeoning and famed Brixton Windmill scene, which also fostered the rise of contemporaries, black midi, Squid, Fat White Family and Shame.

Debut single “Athens, France” was released in January 2019, on the highly respected Speedy Wunderground label, helmed by producer Dan Carey, who is also responsible for launching the careers of Kae Tempest and Natasha Khan (Bat For Lashes) amongst others. The bold, break-out single was followed by the anticipated “Sunglasses'' in July 2019, on the Thurston Moore affiliated label Blank Editions. Off the back of just these two singles, the band garnered massive tastemaker and early live success last year and there is now a huge appetite for what’s next. More recently they released a live collaboration with black midi for Live At The Windmill fundraiser on Bandcamp amongst a host of names including Kae Tempest, Fontaines D.C., Dan Carey's Scottbrains and more.

Heralded as “one of the UK’s best new live acts” by The Guardian, who featured them in their Ones To Watch piece, and in their tips for 2019. Loud and Quiet featured the band as cover stars hailing them as “the best band in the world right now.” They also appeared in the NME100, Dork and DIY tips for 2020 as well as in The Observer’s Culture Tips for 2020 (one of only two music acts). Widespread UK and international press coverage includes The New York Times, The Times, NPR, The Fader, DIY, So Young, Paste, Stereogum, Brooklyn Vegan, Line of Best Fit, The 405, NME, Q Magazine, Mojo, Uncut and more.
