we’re absolutely MADE UP to be able to feature this on today’s Just The Crust! 🥰 one of our favourite musicians and all around amazing guy Harrison Rimmer is here with a brand new single “The Travelist”! ☀️

Harrison has been one of our biggest supporters for a long time and played many of our virtual open mics every single week, and we’re absolutely buzzing to actually be able to show you an exclusive sneak peek at this lovely music video he’s made up! 🤘

“The Travelist” sounds absolutely huge, with the punk rock overtones we’re so used to him doing and fantastic songwriting – Harrison’s vocals in this are out of this world as well. it’s a real class tune about his need to get out there and do it 🌮 something we can completely relate to!

the single will be out this coming Friday 17th Sept – head on over to his YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/user/HarryRimbo124 and drop him a subscribe to be the first to catch the video! 😊 you can also follow him on your favourite streaming site to get notified as soon as it’s out 💫 absolutely fantastic!
