Just The Crust 14/07/25: The Stride – Got To Lose 👊

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Got To Lose” by Burnley-based indie outfit The Stride! 👊

following the release of their single “Hold On” last year, the band have gone from strength to strength, performing across the North West and beyond, taking their indie rock tunes with them and astounding audiences – reminiscent of 90’s Manchester vibes 💥

this new single opens up with a nostalgic guitar progression, backed with a real tight rhythm section that holds it together, giving plenty of room for the lead guitar melody to flow over the top – and the main vocal takes command immediately, it’s a real indie anthemic vibe to it with a singalong chorus and with a proper stadium rock feel 🙌

you can find the track on all streaming platforms, including on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/track/4amjsztM3PMSikUtztUlLH?si=e41b352d3ea2479e – well worth checking out! 🎧

all of our features, reviews, music and more can be found on our website at www.breadrecords.co.uk 🍞
