Premiere: The Jacques – ‘Pretty DJ’

Fiery Bristol upstarts...

Indie is dead, or so they say.

But 'they' forgot to inform The Jacques. Two sets of brothers, their snotty, punk inspired take on The Great British Songwriting Lineage has a brattish, infectious quality.

Think Ray Davies at his most acerbic, think Paul Weller at his most romantic, think four kids barely old enough to drink slating all around them.

lDebut EP 'Pretty DJ' will be released on November 3rd via 25 Hour Convenience – the label kicked off by Gary Powell, Libertines drummer.

A four track distillation of every grimy, gritty facet of the band's songwriting, Clash is able to unveil the video for 'Pretty DJ'. Three minutes of adolescent rage and tuneful hooks, you can check it out below:

8 Bristol The Thunderbolt
14 Manchester The Ruby Lounge
19 Guildford The Boileroom
