Following on from last winter's run of dates in the US and UK, alongside the first fruits of their recording partnership with indie label du jour Alcopop! the Birmingham trio are to embark on another run of shows in April.

Vid for Johnny Foreigner's 'Harriet, By Proxy' released to the wide world

Everyone's favourite Birmingham indie-rock trio, Johnny Foreigner, uploaded their new video as a fan exclusive last week but have now released it to the rest of us:



12" and CD versions of the release are available from their website and from Alcopop! directly.

The Good Suns new single - video

The Good Suns excel at producing beautifully crafted, old time pop gems reminiscent of the back to basics hook laden pop that drives the likes of Girls and Surfer Blood, combined with the infectious melodies of Burt Bacharach and early Beatles.

February 14 sees their début release in the shape of double A-side single 'Shadow'/'At Last I’m Bored'. Both tracks epitomise much of the above. 'Shadow', their roof raising set closer, is an ode to departed and dear friends, whilst 'At Last I’m Bored' is an ideal showcase for their trademark infectious harmonies. It delivers more with each listen.
