Hello folks!
We have a brand new 7" single from The Courettes out on April 30th!
It's not up for pre-sale yet (we'll be starting that nearer to the end of March).
But you can take a look at the fantastic cover art below!
Limited to 1000 copies on ORANGE vinyl!
The Courettes - Hop The Twig (Ltd. ORANGE vinyl 7")
Look out! Look out! Look out! It´s 'HOP THE TWIG'! And it´s coming FAST!
'Hop The Twig' is The Courettes´ brand new single! An exciting and groovy blend of garage, early surf music and '60s girlie pop, all wrapped in tons of riot grrrl attitude. Like The Ronettes and The Ramones invite Link Wray and Duane Eddy for a wild party in Gold Star Studios’ echo chamber!
Hop the Twig was a slang for dying in the 19th century. A very up-to-date theme in these pandemic times, so the tune has a bit of a dark atmosphere - although you can easily dance to it. Shake off your lockdown blues and enjoy the ride, while you can!
Glorious B Side 'Only Happy When You´re Gone' is a Spector-Esque dancefloor Killer!, filled with girl group backing vocals and wall of sound echoes and vibes. And yes, tremolo fuzz atomic guitars are also there!
And don't forget the band's previous 7" - 'Want You Like A Cigarette', still available on lovely pink vinyl!
The Courettes - Want You! Like A Cigarette (Ltd. PINK vinyl 7")
