Only The Poets will release their new EP One More Night in June, ahead of a Manchester gig at Gorilla.
The alt-pop four-piece will headline seven UK dates in support of the new EP.
The band have also shared their new track Gone By Now, which has already proved a fan favourite.
Gone By Now features on the EP, with the digital version comprising 8 tracks and the physical EP nine tracks.
“We’ve taken a lot of our influences from current pop intertwined with Brit-pop and experimented with vocal layers and harmonies,” says frontman Tommy Longhurst. “At the back of our minds we’re constantly thinking about how these songs will sound live. We really wanted to go for that big, expansive stadium filler sound.”
Travelling from country to country, the new EP was recorded on the road, the band setting up recording equipment and cutting vocals whilst touring “We’re excited that so much of this EP was done just the four of us, and a lot of the production was done by Marcus (drums) and Clem (guitar). Feeling inspired and recording whilst playing shows was a cool way of working, we’d not done that before.”
