Niteflights are a London fourpiece – or so their website says, though it does not
reveal who
. Digging deeper, on Facebook, it says they are Adam Hartley, Sam Hayward, James Johnston and Alex Deery.
They make
music which seems to be at the point where post-punkers got into making pop music (think orange Juice and Scritti Politti) fused with the likes of Metronomy or Phonix. This is a GOOD thing. Listen to debut single ‘Marnie’ to hear these two influences playing off against each other rather well.
They have just released a free, three-track EP, which you can download from below. My favourite track of the three is ‘Emily (It’s Easy)’ but why not give all three a listen and see which one your favourite is?
There’s a video for the t
itle track:
They have recorded a cover of John Cale’s ‘Paris 1919’ which sounds vastly different from the original, which all good covers should do.
…so what do you think?
