EASTBOURNE’S pop punks are making a homecoming appearance to mark the release of their debut album Backbone.
The album follows their EP Viewpoint, which was released early last year.
It was produced by Drew Lawson at Nottingham’s Steel City Studios over the course of eight months, with a guest vocal from Matt Wilson of Set Your Goals on the track Deadweight.
"We always felt like an album had to really make a statement or it wasn't worth doing,” says vocalist Alex Adam. “There are a few songs on the album that we wouldn't have been confident enough to write or put out as our younger selves. It took a lot of time for us to make that transition and I think Backbone is a word that signifies that.”
The band will be performing live, ahead of a signing session.
