Dublin “velourcore” newcomers PRETTY LTD. are pleased to announce the release of their new single ‘Easy’ set for release on 22nd April 2024.
Recorded and mixed by Les Keye at Arad Studios in Dublin, the single was mastered by Stephen Cannon, with extra guitars on ‘Easy’ written and performed by Stephen Cannon.
Riding on the back of a feel-good, stomping rock chorus threaded with wordplay, handclaps, and searing lead guitar acrobatics, new single ‘Easy’ is the perfect first taste of a band who seem to find melody and hooks their natural playground.
Commenting on the track, the band said: "’Easy’ is a tune about that person we all know, the one that's always complaining, no matter how privileged their situation is. There's always someone that's better off than you, sure, but there's countless more that have it way worse, so be grateful for what you have. Some people always find a way to be pissed off, but they actually have it pretty easy."
Fresh from supporting NI indie-punks Cherym in Galway recently, the band will play a handful of select Irish dates over the coming months, with further live dates TBA (see below for full listings).
Trading on their tongue-in-cheek late ‘90s pop aesthetic and a typically razor sharp Irish craic, the trio specialise in radio-ready, arena-sized college pop rock anthems that have more in common with Weezer and The Presidents Of The United States Of America than they do NSYNC and B*Witched.
The band are fronted by big boss man DJ Campbell, who writes the tunes, sings the tunes, and struggles with guitar. If it weren’t for the phrase ‘sure look’ his vocabulary would be halved.
Drummer Tom Gaffney wore drumming gloves once and forgot how to chew for a month. “He’s also the only one with actual musical ability out of us, but he doesn’t brag about it and we thank him for it,” adds DJ.
Bassist Dylan Scully thinks he’s Peter Parker. Not Spider-Man, just Peter Parker. He started playing bass by accident when his childhood friend replaced his PSP with a bass guitar.
Releasing their debut single ‘High’ in 2023, the trio quickly started gigging around Ireland, completing an Irish tour with Idle Discourse to a rapturous response. Since then they have been getting ready to release music throughout 2024 starting with their Valentine’s Day release ‘Something Nice’, which—along with ‘High’—was featured on Dublin City FM’s Tilt with John Barker.
‘High’ was also briefly featured on Today FM when one of the lads' girlfriends sent in a Spotify link to the station via WhatsApp, before the show realised that the song was about doing drugs.
Lesson learnt.
