Talkboy’s New Single ‘Mother’ Is A Riveting Debut

Check out the Leeds band's intoxicating opening statement...

Talkboy is a name that started being discussed in Leeds at the end of last year.

A flurry of live shows seemed to spark local hype, with the six piece playing key sets at the likes of Live At Leeds, Gold Sounds and a sold-out gig curated by BBC Intro’s Abbie McCarthy.

Debut single 'Mother' finds the band making good on this early buzz, a triumphant piece of psych-addled indie with a pop edge.

A song that finds its own path, the careering guitars clash into one another, adding a noisy punk gilding to their riveting songwriting.

We've got first play of the visuals, and it's a fresh glimpse into Talkboy's world – you'll be hearing a lot more about this group in 2018…
