Releasing their electrifying third album ‘Always Something’ to rave reviews last year, the New York band arrive in the UK for a string of dates with a live performance at the Piper , next week in Hastings on 9th April . With a classic power-pop sound that’s drawn comparisons to Blondie to Echo & The Bunnymen to The Primitives, the band will be blitzing through a set of their three-minute indie gems at this show. Listen to new album ‘Always Something’ in full HERE.
Made-up of founding members Rose Vastola (guitars / vox), Ian Bernacett (guitars), and Ian Rose (drums), UV-TV made their name on the Florida scene before relocating to New York for the creation of their third and latest studio studio effort: ‘Always Something’. Released via PaperCup Music last year, it contained 9 electrifying tunes laced with nostalgic melodies and joyous hooks.
Revisiting some of its highlights in 2022, UV-TV are pleased to present a collection of alternative versions of three tracks that featured on ‘Always Something’; including the singles “Distant Lullaby” and “Back to Nowhere” plus the penultimate track: “Super Abound”.
Talking about how the new alternative versions came together, Rose tells:
“Back in 2020, when we (Rose Vastola and Ian Bernacett) were working on the beginning of what would become our latest release; ‘Always Something,’ we accumulated a collection of tracks that seemed to take on an entirely different world of their own. As the fraternal twin to what would become the rock record, we intended “Always Something” to be… Like other artists who share their process, we wanted to do the same by giving these tracks a little light from the digital vault and sharing the original ideas that helped inform our latest record. The Demos of “Back to Nowhere,” “Distant Lullaby,” and “Superabound” are included in this release.””
Now preparing to take the songs of ‘Always Something’ out on the road for the first time, the band will be embarking on a mammoth tour across Europe with Hastings next week
