We take a look at their two singles to date:
Hearsay
With Coldplay’s classic ‘Hearsay’ coursing through its guitars, Hearsay reignites the early 00s when indie searched for something purer.
Vocally, Longstaff taps into the innocence and power of Haven’s Gary Briggs and Thirteen Senses’ Will South. Combined, it gives Longstaff an instant presence on the indie scene as a real force to be reckoned with.
False Alarm
The emotion coursing through this single is astonishing. The emotive rhetoric of The National links arms with the hope of Longview and Embrace to conjure sheer genius.
Wright’s guitars howl with such pain alongside the atmospheric beauty of the Doves debut album to showcase what a truly special band Porcelain already are!
