London-based punks DREAM NAILS return with euphoric break-up song ‘Control’,’out via Marshall Records, working with award-winning producer Adrian Bushby and returning with a revitalised, power trio line-up. Bass player Mimi Jasson steps forward as the band’s new vocalist. Accompanying the new single, the band will also play an intimate London show at The Grace on Tuesday 8th October.
Drummer Lucy Katz shares the following:
“As Dream Nails enters its third phase as a classic power trio, it’s the perfect time to share ‘Control’ with the world. Our bassist, Mimi, is now on lead vocals while continuing to bass-slay. Seeing her take vocals in her stride is genuinely inspiring and is pushing our musicianship further than we ever thought we could go. We’ve found a new energy.”
“Our new track is about understanding why people might stay in an unhealthy relationship for too long,” adds Jasson. “The lyrics reflect ‘there’s good in bad and bad in the good’. Things are never simple; we wanted that nuance to come across.”
Guitarist Anya Pearson adds:
“‘Control’ is also about stepping into your power, finding the courage to leave someone trying to control you and mess with your head. It’s vulnerable, it’s brave, and it’s euphoric.”
“We had the pleasure of recording ‘Control’ at the Marshall Studio with producer Adrian Bushby, who’s recorded with some of our heroes like the Foo Fighters and Spice Girls.” Jasson recalls excitedly, “We asked him to regale us with stories from the golden era recording ‘Wannabe’ and ‘Who Do You Think You Are’, and then we channelled a bit of that spice into the track.”
Sharing about future works, Katz adds, “We’re dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s on our third LP right now and will be heading back to the studio shortly to lay our baby down.”
Dream Nails play in London at The Grace on Tuesday, 8th October.
