I don’t know if this is a cheat or not – but as New Year’s Eve is part of the Christmas season, I’m going to include this. Whether this will proceed to throw the internet into another long debate about whether or not it should be considered Christmassy, in the way that people have got worked up over East 17’s ‘Stay Another Day’ single or Die Hard…only time will tell.

Pale Waves are Heather Baron-Gracie (Lead Singer and guitarist), Hugo Silvani (guitar), Charlie Wood (bass) and Ciara Doran (drums). Having released a number of acclaimed tracks over the course of 2017 -‘There’s A Honey‘ made the 17 Seconds Festive Fifty (!) -their debut EP New Year’s Eve will be released on January 18 2018.

Also on the EP will be the equally fine, if not Christmassy ‘My Obsession.’
