Spring King Announce First Track On Beats1
Raucous, tea-loving Manchester foursome band Spring King are greeting the summer in style, with their track “City” being played first on Zane Lowe’s Apple Music Beats1 worldwide radio show.
The newly launched track was introduced by Zane who praised the little-known band’s skill and style: “there’s been one song that all of us keep coming back to. We’ve tested sound to it, I’ve referred to it lyrically when I’ve needed a boost, because it’s been stressful at times, and exciting and challenging. We’ve even cut demos to it to convince people to continue to support this radio station. This band put this EP out a few months ago with little or no fanfare outside of core fans. But they’re building. That’s exactly the kind of story and the kind of record we need to kick this whole thing off with, cause man, it’s not about fanfare – there’s fireworks and a hangover the next day – it’s about quality and consistency.”
