Colours of the Day

Colours of the Day is a new monthly mix series from El Rancho featuring tracks purchased on Bandcamp Friday, when the platform waives their revenue share of all sales to pay artists directly. This will typically be new music releases but also new reissues and things I’ve been streaming and been meaning to pick up. If you like a track head to bandcamp and check out more!

Premiere: The Roves – ‘Fixing To Burn”

The Roves are back! The Roves return with ‘The Big Silver’ EP following on from the success of their last single ‘Hey Little Man’ which cracked the door open at 6 Music and found fans in Gideon Coe, Iggy Pop, Bobby Gillespie, Stephen Pastel and with radio DJs from Madrid to Austin. The Roves were back at KONK studios in London to record and mix the four songs on ‘The Big Silver’ and working again with engineer Josh Green they have pushed their sound and songwriting further than on any release so far.

The EP will be released physically as a 12” vinyl & Digital. The lead track ‘Fixing To Burn’ precedes the EP release and has a new video accompaniment produced by Tom from the band which premiers exclusively here today!

The ‘The Big Silver’ EP is out on July 3rd 2020. You can pre order today from https://elranchorecords.bandcamp.com/album/the-big-silver and you’ll get ‘Fixing To Burn’ to download now. All sales from the release will be donated 50/50 between the Music Venue Trust: Grassroots Music Venue Crisis Fund #saveourvenues saveourvenues.co.uk and Black Lives Matter blacklivesmatter.com
