Fans have spoken, listening to budding garage rock act Saint Agnes’ debut single “Welcome To Silvertown” more than 1 million times on Spotify. Since the track was released earlier this March, the riotous 4-piece from the UK has also enjoyed placements on several of the streaming service’s playlists (including the “All New Rock” and “New Noise” channels), as well as Apple’s “Breaking Hard Rock” playlist and premieres onGigwise and SiriusXM Octane’s “Test Drive.”
Saint Agnes continues the momentum today with the release of brand-new track “Move Like A Ghost.” The song fuses psychedelic organ tones and howling riffs atop a thunderous rhythm section, and has quickly become a live favorite for the band.
The song is the second single from the band’s upcoming debut album, also called “Welcome To Silvertown” that will be released Friday, May 3 on Notting Hill Music Masters. Self-produced and engineered by Luke Oldfield (The Wytches, Uncle Acid & The Deadbeats), the noir recording captures the true rebel heart and energy of the band. The album is rife with themes of wild fantasy, escapism, emotional fragility and the inside-outs of living in East London’s district of Silvertown, all bookended with the band’s incredible penchant for lyrical songwriting.
Co-fronted by enthralling frontwoman Kitty Austen (vocals/guitar/keys) and guitarist/vocalist Jon Tufnell, backed up by bassist Ben Chernett and drummer Andy Head, the band’s magnetic chemistry and catchy songwriting are making their mark with many comparing their incredible showmanship and tough-as-nails attitude with The Kills, Jack White, Starcrawler and Rival Sons.
The press has also been favorable as the band continues to make solid impressions:
“Emerging act Saint Agnes, who are a Tarantino-via-White-Stripes-
—The Independent
“Saint Agnes deliver menacing witchery. Warped, weird and a bit filthy, yes, but oh so tasty.”
— Classic Rock Magazine
“Saint Agnes kick out the jams with a fervour and sense of purpose that’s genuinely refreshing.”
— The Quietus
“Saint Agnes have created a unique cinematic sound and a rock ‘n’ roll Gothic image to match.”
— Daily Telegraph
Saint Agnes has already logged 200 shows in their native UK and continue to win over audiences with appearances at several of Europe’s biggest festivals this spring and summer.
