WATCH: BRIDGES – ‘BFF’

Ethan Proctor, Josh Redman-Thomas, Henry Matthews and Joe Lane, aka BRIDGES, are most certainly ones to watch on the UK indie-pop scene right now. Having supported the likes of George Ezra and To Kill A King, and played a number of festivals – including Glastonbury – last year, their melodic sounds are reaching substantial audiences and gracing many an ear. Now, with the release of a new double A-side and a Summer tour just kicking off, it seems this year will follow in the successful footsteps of 2014.

‘BFF’, the lead single, is an uplifting, anthemic slice of indie-pop with soaring vocals, gentle Maccabees-esque melodies and sweeping, emotive overtones.

Double A-side, ‘BFF/Ballgowns’ is out now via Bear Pit Records.
