Salisbury punk rockers CARSICK are pleased to announce a brand new standalone single ‘Put It Down’, which is set for release on 5th September 2023 via Alcopop! Records.

Rounding off a packed festival season which included jam-packed and much-lauded performances at 2000 Trees, Truck Festival, and Boomtown, the new single was recorded, mixed and mastered by Sam Winfield and Tom Millar at Studio 91, Newbury, and is another scintillating slice of inde punk from the rapidly rising young quartet.

Commenting on the track, the band say: “'Put It Down', first and foremost, is a breakup song, both from the perspective of the person experiencing the heartbreak and the friend trying to help them through it. All of us in the band have been in both positions at one point or another and we wanted to capture the uniquely tumultuous state of mind a situation like that can put you in, especially if it's happening to you for the first time. It's not an accident we're dropping it in September, either—we want this track to feel like the end of summer. If you're going through it, this one's for you .”

The band recently released their debut EP Drunk Hymns which is out now in either standard digital edition, or extended 12” vinyl on Salisbury orange featuring an exclusive Side B which contains all of the band’s previously digital-only release tracks.

The band play an extensive run of UK headline dates this September/October with tickets on sale now, and will also appear at Barnstomper Festival, Attitude Festival and Left of The Dial later this year (see below for listings).

More info:
 A band formed over pints in a small English pub in late 2021, CARSICK take influence from a range of different artists and genres—from indie rock to post-punk to hip-hop with electronic elements—but their tongue-in-cheek lyrical approach directly tackles the trials and tribulations of life as a young adult, and especially the drinking culture which dominates the band's demographic.


Their energetic and unpredictable live shows match that theme: this is music about living for the weekend; about the desperate chaos of small-town nightlife and about forgetting what happened last night. 

More than anything, CARSICK have rapidly made a name for themselves through their rowdy live performances. Since their debut show at Southampton's Joiners in November 2021, they have supported artists like Knuckle Puck, Salem, NOISY, Enola Gay, Narrow Head, and Beach Riot across the South of England. Their hometown gigs in Salisbury are the stuff of local legend, including a sold-out show at the 300-cap Chapel supported by borts and Binboy (ex-Gnarwolves).

In April 2022, the band caught the attention of the Marshall Live Agency, and were quickly signed to their growing roster of the country's most exciting young bands. In July 2022, they played two sets at Oxford's Truck Festival, opening both the Main Stage on the Thursday and the Market Stage on the Friday.
