Brighton’s Ice Black Birds are releasing their third single 22:22 as a FREE DOWNLOAD ahead of their first ever SXSW showcase on 16th March and weeks ahead of the single’s official UK release on the 21st March. 22:22 plus its b-side S.S.W will only be available for the w/c Monday 7th February !
Ice Black Birds possess a knack for grinding out riffs as muscular as they are catchy, setting them apart from their peers and giving them the early stamp of ‘ones to watch’.
The single 22:22 is a blast of tight bass line circles beneath lean, scruffy guitar licks and singer Sam Denniston’s charismatic vocals. Also available as a FREE DOWNLOAD is the b-side S.S.W a jangly, soul-laden break-up track as strong as its flipside.
