October Drift’s debut album is a cathartic collection of tracks encompassing themes of loneliness, fear, and ultimate positivity, and builds on the solid foundation that they have built over years of touring and writing to cement themselves as an important and powerful new presence. Physical Education’s Justin Lockey says of their signing; “October Drift are one of those bands... there's maybe a handful at best in every generation of guitar bands.
One of the most electrifying, charismatic, and formidable live acts of the past two years – with appearances at festivals including Glastonbury’s John Peel stage, Reading & Leeds, and The Great Escape, as well as a tour with Red Rum Club earlier this year and a slot at Liverpool’s Sound City – the band look certain to ascend to even greater heights in 2019.
