Jim Valentine 2014-2

The band: Glasgow outfit Jim Valentine are a young, energetic rock ‘n’ roll four piece making waves in the scene. Forming earlier this year, Jim Valentine have a unique contrasting balance of rawness and youth making them one of the biggest buzz bands around the city; a buzz that is sure to catch on following this impressive release. 

The sound: The song itself is a powerful piece, reflecting overtones of recent efforts from Turner & Co. A combination of instrumentals infused with sheer grit and confident over-exposure of rock ‘n’ roll tendencies give this record an intangible swagger. The record finds its real merit in singer James’ distinctive vocal qualities, giving new texture to an influenced pallet.

The Lowdown: The record is released via Dead Beet records on November 28th through digital download and limited black vinyl. The band play Broadcast that night as part of their single launch. Tickets available here.
