little xs for eyes release their debut album of harmony-led folk-pop entitled S.A.D. on October 31st. The band were on a fair few people’s lips who I spoke to over the weekend at Hard Working Class Heroes (I went to see the awesome Civil Civic at the same time). Consisting of Bennie Reilly, Davey Moor, Michelle Considine, Lucy Jackson, Adrian Reilly and Harry Bookless the band have strengthened their identity from their EP of a couple of years back with a girl/boy dynamic to the songs.
The first free downloadable single ‘In the Light’ will give you a taste of what’s to come. A launch night takes place on October 26th in The Sugar Club.
