Neon Waltz Release Vinyl ‘First Light’ through Atlantic Records

Hailing from the deepest, darkest most northerly point of the UK, Caithness’ Neon Waltz have announced their first official release through Atlantic Records, ‘First Light’ will be released in vinyl and digital formats on 13 April. The release features six demos and live recordings from the last year, including Sombre Fayre and Bare Wood Aisles as well as very special recording of Sundial live from their show at Freswick Castle.

Alongside this release, they will be touring the UK from 9 April and into the start of festival season, with Dot to Dot and The Great Escape just announced.

Having already been named as one of the finest new British bands by the likes of Q, NME (“Scotland’s coolest new gang”) and Shortlist to name a few, things are starting off very well for this six-piece and this is just the beginning…

Stay tuned.

Neon Waltz are Jordan Shearer (Vocals), Darren Coghill (Drums), Kevin Swanson (Guitar), Jamie Swanson (Guitar), Calvin Wilson (Bass), Liam Whittles (Keyboard)
