Glasgow four-piece Hazy Sundays kick off 2023 with their new single ‘Lose Control’. It follows last year’s anarchic ‘All You Ever Wanted’ and the volatile ‘Never Know’.
Where ‘the previous two singles were unrestrained animals spilling out into the late-night streets, sonically, ‘Lose Control’ feels like a few hours earlier into that night. The Kinks’ ‘Days’ acoustic guitars come out to play with the Libertines and Tribes on this boozy anthem.
The guitars are also blessed with Noel’s unifying hedonism of ‘Don’t Look Back In Anger’ and ‘Stay Young’ as they swagger and stray around a pub 6 pints deep. Mark Devlin’s solo lifts the woozy affair to the level of ‘The Mighty Quinn’ or ‘One For The Road’. Divine escapism!
The self-reflection of the lyrics tempers escapist sonic with a pause for thought and an arm around the shoulder. Couple this with frontman Shaun Kenny’s Tom Meighan meets Liam Gallagher vocal and you’re left with no doubt Hazy Sundays are going to do big things.
