London guitar rockers CHILDCARE with Ed Cares (lead vocals) Emma Topolski (bass) Rich Legate (guitar) and Glyn Daniels (drums.)
They released an acclaimed EP earlier this year titled “Made Simple.”
Now they have released their next single, titled “Getting Over You (By Dressing Up Like You)” — shared below — we had a listen:
There are a lot of nice chords, a convincing rhythm and the whole treat is sweetened by fine cushiony voices on this splendid junket.
It has a bit of a Strokes vibe, but maybe those clear neo soul style lead vocals remind us of the beautiful Curtis Mayfield. This contains elements of sharply observed britpop and treacly indie rock.
A wonderful wave of light-hearted & honest pop.
CHILDCARE will be performing their first UK headline tour in November in support of the release [dates below stream]
