Liverpool's alright (okay) return with new single ‘good friend (he was)’!

Beginning with a standout guitar hook, alright (okay)’s newest single ‘good friend (he was)’ feels like the ultimate opening, a track that would welcome you perfectly into any album.

Following an ambush of quick bass riffs and drums that begin subtle but grow louder, about a minute into the track the song completely changes. The start of the single suddenly feels like a build up or an artful tease ahead of the main body. Dancier guitar becomes the forefront of the song while raspy vocals lace it with a more intense feeling. ‘He was a good friend of mine’ lead singer howls in a voice that's reminiscent of Sports Team's vocalist. 

Despite this only being their sixth release, alright (okay) have already gained a mass of attention from playing shows across the North West. Sounding somewhat Punk yet very Alt-Rock their music isn’t overly polished or overly produced, it’s raw and authentic, exactly what the music industry has been craving.
