Ticking Haze recap -

Track 7, When the Radio Plays.

It would have been a hit in the 80’s! We almost dropped it for being ‘too pop’, but it’s fun and upbeat, and will forever give us music video nightmares 😂

This is happening tomorrow and is gonna be GREAT
This will be @linesofsilence.com last gig of the year, opening for the Southern gothic infused @formingsound.bsky.social . For me this is a Leeds hometown gig and an easy stumble home ha, a lovely way to end the year.

NEUCLOUDS came with a chorus. SHOPFIRES came with their minimalist verses. They debated long into the afternoon about the inclusion of a guitar solo. They agreed to leave it in. An 80s style indie pop anthem was born.
