Their debut release, Bullet, soon followed and has clocked up over a million streams on Spotify, most from listeners in London, Los Angeles, Dublin and Berlin.Their latest track Fever, is taken from the forthcoming EP released on Brixton label Aesop in mid-November, will be followed by another opportunity to check them out in their native Glasgow on 27 November - perhaps the last in such an intimate setting.Listen at https://soundcloud.com/thisislovesick Olaf Furniss and Derick Mackinnon run the Born To Be Wide music industry events and seminars www.borntobewide.co.uk Under the Radar is in association with AIM (Association of Independent Music) AIM is a trade body established in 1999 to provide a collective voice for the UK’s independent music industry.
