this song is a proper summery anthem, blending indie, pop and electronic elements to create a real lush tune that is perfect for a summery(ish!) day like today here in Manchester! 💿 for fans of Two Door Cinema ClubNew Order and The National 🎧

having played across Manchester pre-pandemic, Hayes & Y have been hard at work establishing themselves as a presence on the scene – their previous release, and this one really sets them apart as ones to watch! ✊
