Everything about young Glaswegian five-piece Walt Disco is exuberant, glamorous and exciting.

Cool Californian-based IHEARTCOMIX released the single last month via their record label division - 1INFINITY, which also boasts a shared music video universe. Walt Disco play a series of festivals this summer starting with XpoNorth festival in Inverness from 3-4 July, Deer Shed on 27 July, Kendal Calling on 28 July, Neverworld Festival on 2 August and Belladrum Tartan Heart Festival on 3 August.
