Hearts & Rockets launch The Promise in Meanjin

  • The Bearded Lady 138 Boundary Street West End, QLD, 4101 Australia (map)

Naarm bratwave duo Hearts & Rockets head to The Bearded Lady Thursday March 21 to launch their new single, ‘The Promise’ – out now on a split 7” with Cong Josie via Psychic Hysteria and It Records. Joining Hearts and Rockets for their Meanjin show is Queerbait and Whoroboros – tix on sale now $15 + bf from https://www.eventbrite.com.au/e/hearts-rockets-naarm-with-queerbait-and-whoroboros-at-the-bearded-lady-tickets-853423040287

Hearts & Rockets’ new synth-heavy single ‘The Promise’, sounds like the indie sleeze offspring of The Cramps and The B-52's, Kalindy’s bratty vocals demand servitude, while Kurt’s stabbing bass punctures the synth’s driving melodies, all set to a disco beat.

‘The Promise’ conjures nostalgic pacts we all made to each other as kids, a reminder of the trust we put in those first and important friendships. Listen to and buy 'The Promise' at https://heartsandrockets.bandcamp.com/track/the-promise
