Oh, Brighton’s very own Dutch Criminal Record is back at it again, folks! They’ve dropped “Now or Never,” and let me tell you, it’s a breath of fresh seaside air. It’s their first jam of 2024, and boy, does it promise a tidal wave of tunes on the horizon. Rob Quickenden’s at the helm this time, and he’s bottled their essence just right – those peppy melodies and thoughtful words, all wrapped up in a blanket of jangly guitars and a beat that just won’t quit. Plus, there’s this dreamy, reverb-soaked vibe that gives it layers, you know?
Now, the trio – that’s Sam Thrussell, Joe Frampton, and Joe Delaney-Stone – they’ve been making waves, big ones. Sold-out gigs across the UK, jaunts around Europe and the States, even rocked SXSW. And after touring with Sea Girls, they’re riding a high that just seems to keep climbing. With “Now or Never” setting the stage, these lads are reeling folks in left and right with their catchy indie-pop hooks. Keep your ears peeled; Dutch Criminal Record is just warming up.
