Their most recent single Tripod was released last week, and completes the release of their EP, All For You: Dance out on First Run Records.
Previous support has come from Spotify, landing both New Music Friday and Scotify editorial playlists, as well as airplay from Vic Galloway on BBC Radio Scotland, the RAPAL team on BBC Radio nan Gàidheal and Dean Jackson via Beat on the Beeb.
They’ve also played festival slots at Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival, EH6, multi-venue Tenement Trail and most recently YouthBEATZ in Dumfries. The band have also supported acts including Jungle, Holy Esque and UTR favourites Neon Waltz.
They headline Glasgow’s McChuills next Friday (28 July) with support from SHEARS and play Edinburgh’s Sneaky Pete’s supporting Fourth Daughter on 5 August. Visit https://linktr.ee/BETAWAVES
