A town more often associated with pensioners than pop stars is to feature on the cover of a trendy new single.

A bus marked with Eastbourne as its destination has been photographed for local band Toploader's latest release.

The band, whose members all come from the popular resort, is staying close to its roots by using the picture for its new single, Only For a While.

The single is to be released on April 9 on cassette and CD.

The band hope the release will build on the runaway success of Dancing In The Moonlight, which is still in the Top 30 after ten weeks.

Toploader's debut album Onka's Big Moka has spent an impressive 34 weeks in the album chart Top 40.

The band begin a UK tour this evening with a gig at the Event II in Brighton.
