Hipslinky

Event information

Signed to Genius twin Recordings, Hipslinky produced one of the most critically acclaimed classic albums of the early millenium( NME 7/10 UNCUT 4/5 ROCKSOUND 4/5), despite skating under many people's radar.

Now de-camped in a home made Barn in deepest Sussex, always described as eccentric, their warped inventiveness and clear intent is back: pop sensibilities jostle with all the right influences from Talking Heads to Edwyn Collins, the idea of Indie getting a slice of danceability ain't new, but when played like this these songs aren't borrowings or overtly indebted to any other band. These chap's tunes are full of ingenuity and of course, above all, Pop.........sing, dance and enjoy.....

Most of them aren’t even 18, but that doesn’t stop Cities of Glass writing the kind of hook that won’t leave your head for days. Soaring vocals, driving beats, shimmering guitar leads and tight bass lines are what their anthemic pop rock sound is about. The boys have spent the last few months trashing out their latest songs through pre-production before locking themselves away in a number of London studios to record them all. The New Year sees their latest offering incorporated into their loud, energetic live set. Make sure you come and see what all the fuss is about.
