‘Between The Streets and the Stars’ single by The Electric Stars available from Detour Records now.

This week saw the release of The Electric Stars new 3-track CD and iTunes single on the Paisley Archive imprint of Detour Records.

 
‘Between The Streets and the Stars’ is a great A-side song, starting with a bit of a northern soul feel and developing into an extremely radio friendly and catchy track. The production is excellent, the mix is spot on, and I could see this rising up the charts rapidly if picked up by the TV and radio media (easier said than done!). This A-side deserves to do well and will undoubtedly create a lot of interest in, and new fans for, The Electric Stars.

Next up is the previously unreleased ‘Every Now and Then’ which starts off with a sound bringing The Faces to mind before quickly continuing with a Country feel (not a genre that personally works for me). Third in line is ‘Bedtime Stories’ with its espionage/cold war film title soundscape before the vocals come in and is medium paced and brooding and features an 80s sounding keyboard in places and, for some reason, had me thinking slightly of Mood Six.

Overall, this is a trio of high quality recordings that confirm The Electric Stars rising status and contains an A-side that we should all be enjoying on the radio on the way to work this summer.
