Clocks - Old Valve Radio

Clocks signed to Island Records in 2007 and have since been writing and recording their debut album with Elliot James (Bloc Party, Fields and Little Man Tate). ‘Old Valve Radio’ is their first single proper on the label released on April 7.

It’s a driving, stomping smash of an indie-pop song replete with big hooks and a big chorus. Serious summer festival sing-alongs surely await this new entrant in the search for the UK’s best new pop-rock boy band.

To complement the bands debut album campaign, they secured two of the best and most sought after artists to design their artwork – Mr Pete Fowler and Mark James (SFA, Magic Numbers, Monsterism, Gruff Rhys) have put pen to paper (or actually paint to wood) and created 12 beautifully and individually cartooned Russian Dolls that will each, in turn, feature on single and album sleeves.

Clocks have been out on tour with One Night Only and shortly embark on a support slot with Scouting For Girls.
