Floodlights sign to [PIAS] Recordings and share new single, "Can You Feel It"
Launching into a new era, Naarm/Melbourne band Floodlights have announced their worldwide signing with [PIAS] Recordings, alongside the release of new single, "Can You Feel It".
“‘Can You Feel It’ began as an idea in Naarm/Melbourne and was shaped into a song in London", the band explains. "The lyrics were written in a quick burst, in one of those moments where words pour out - releasing a bottled up feeling of anticipation, excitement and fear - an act of catharsis, much like the song itself. It quickly became a key element of our live set as we toured the UK/EU over three months in 2023.”
Next month, the band head to the UK/IE for a string of shows, with dates in Dublin, Manchester, Glasgow, London, and Liverpool.
“We’re so excited to welcome Floodlights to the [PIAS] family. Floodlights are one of those rare bands that you can’t help but fall in love with on first listen, and are up there as one of Australia’s greatest live acts," says Mari Stuart, Label Group Director at [PIAS] Australia. "Our local label team have all been massive fans of Floodlights for a while now and we can’t wait to share their incredible music with the world through [PIAS]’s global network.”
"Can You Feel It" is out now via [PIAS].
