Toronto-based band Nightbox who have two Irish members are currently on tour with Dragonette in North America. The band have a followup single to ‘Burning’, their last one which was produced by Al-P of MSTRKFT and Sebastien Grainger of Death From Above 1979.
‘Utopia’ is the sound of a band not shaking that Two Door Cinema Club comparison any time soon but the song is a subtle and pleasant indie-disco pop affair. The band have a debut album coming later in the year.
