Westside Cowboy’s debut album, It Goes On, isn’t due out until August 31st (via Island Records), but today, the buzzy English indie act has dropped the project’s latest single, the infectious “Pin Up Boys.”
“’Pin Up Boys’ was written a year and a half ago using an acoustic guitar, a drum machine sample pad, and some screwdrivers as drumsticks,” the band said in a statement. “It is by far the longest serving song on the album and the one that we have played the most live, which was a blessing and a curse when we came to record. After realising this song was set in its ways, we thought the recording should be a somewhat faithful version of the live performance. We hope you get something out of it.”
Emotive, dynamic, propulsive, and accompanied by a cute music video, the track is yet another promising teaser for Westside Cowboy’s first studio album, following the wonderful “Kick Stones (The Boys).” Watch the video for “Pin Up Boys” below. You can also pre-order It Goes On here.
