Oscar Lang’s ‘Flowers’ Is A Sunshine Strewn Dose Of Indie Pop

"Can you feel it in your toes...?"

Indie pop prodigy Oscar Lang has shared his exuberant new single 'Flowers'.

Still only 19 years old the songwriter bursts in 2020 with a clutch of live shows and a brand new single, following on from his sterling debut EP 'bops etc'.

New single 'Flowers' is out now, and it's a sunshine strewn piece of indie pop, reminiscent of everyone from Teenage Fanclub to Dirty Hit team mate Beabadoobee.

It's a wonderfully succinct offering, so carefree and yet also self-aware in its construction, with Oscar's voice calling out: "Down the chord progression goes… can you feel it in your toes?"

A sound he dubs "Beatles-esque" we'd also throw power pop greats The Apples In Stereo in there, too, such is its relish for hard-won innocence.

Says Oscar: “‘Flowers’ is a new change in my sound that I’ve been waiting to make for a while, I finally get to record the songs I’ve been writing since I was 16 but never had the opportunity to go into a studio and do a full band recording of. I wanted to blend a mix of the old Beatles-esque psychedelia and a modern sound, and it was a fun opportunity for me to scream all over a track.”

Tune in now.
