It might sound slightly daft to say that you ‘know’ John Peel would have loved a particular band or song, but given that Stanley Brinks did get support from the legendary DJ before his death, I’m not really being that presumptuous about this.

Stanley Brinks and the Wave Pictures are shortly to release a new collaboration together, Gin, on which neither of the two tracks on this single ‘Orange Juice’ and ‘Maybe I Will See You Again’ feature. But it is a packaging of two brilliant songs making up an excellent indie-pop single (and of course, it’s coming out on 7″ – on Fika). Turn it up and play it loud.

They are also heading off on tour in March:

1 Ramsgate – Ramsgate Music Hall
2 Brighton – The Prince Albert
3 London – The Old Queens Head
4 Nottingham – The Maze
5 Cardiff – The Moon Club
8 Wakefield – The Hop
9 Newcastle – The Head Of Steam
11 Glasgow – CCA
