Shambolics

Four-piece Shambolics continue their great tradition of creating the greatest romances and tragedies with the release of their new shimmering indie rock single ‘Sandra Speed’.

Set to a reverb washed score, all swirling guitar breaks, sugar-spun melodies and cloud-busting choruses; ‘Sandra Speed’ recalls the starry-eyed indie reminiscent of Aztec Camera to Blossoms and The Stone Roses, delivered with the fresh-faced signature of one of Scotland’s sharpest new prospects.

Through painterly descriptions and melodies as sweet and uplifting as you’ll ever hear, here the Shambolics tell the story of a girl fallen on hard times; a character at once vividly familiar, but frozen perennially out of reach.

“I wrote the song in our studio staring out the window and seeing the very thing happen right outside,” reflects frontman Darren Forbes. “The song is about a vulnerable girl who has mingled with the wrong crowd and lost herself.”

Released on Valentines Day last month through Alan McGee’s Creation 23 label, ‘Sandra Speed’ directly follows the roaring success of their debut ‘Chasing A Disaster’, a track that marked the band’s signing to the label.
