Four boys barely in their twenties, mastering the art of encapsulating
the modern condition into hyper-habit-forming, gleaming pop nuggets.
Follow-up to May debut Living On The Guestlist, second single Pistols
& Hearts pushes Captain Phoenix’s growing reputation to new levels.
“Pistols and Hearts is a bass driven wallop of love and longing that
see’s leading lad Ben’s raspy oh-so 70’s vocals punch and plunder
through his heartache. It’ll have teenage girls going weak at the knees
from the opening chord” EMMA EDMONDSON – THE STAR. “A saucey bluesman
who can relieve girls of their knickers with just one gravelly yelp.
Pistols & Hearts is a fully formed indie smasher” LEONIE COOPER –
NME. “British pastoral meets folk-blues. Burrows has one of those huge
voices that has you tracking back through to pop history” DAN CAIRNS –
