Lonsdale Boys Club to bring back pop-rock

It wasn't long ago we saw bands like Muse, The Kaiser Chiefs and The Arctic Monkey's dominate the charts here and abroad with their irresistibly vivacious tunes packed with exciting guitar-riffs and catchy vocals, the charts seem to be lacking in this to a certain extent nowadays. It seems that the new pop-rock band, Lonsdale Boys Club have taken inspiration from home-grown bands like these as well as virtually all forms of rock in British history from Brit-Pop to The Beatles, mixed in with an ounce of disco/funk. They are the true definition of pop-rock.

Music of the last couple of years has seemed to express a new vibrant, upbeat energy and Lonsdale Boys Club have captured this with ease. They are quite simply fun, fun to listen to in their new tune 'Light Me Up' and fun to watch perform. Lead-singer Chris Weaver's vocals have echoes of The Kooks lead-singer Luke Pritchard if he actually opened his mouth properly and pronounced his words when he sung. Yet Weaver's vocals are lively and boisterous, which are perfectly suited to this sing-a-long anthem.

The tune essentially revolves around the concept that regardless of circumstance, everyone has the ability to let go, loose their inhibitions and quite simply light up our lives by having fun! The gentle drum-beat and charming guitar-riff blends brilliantly with Weaver's vocals to produce this almighty tune. It's astonishing really that this has failed to make it big, given it having all the attributes for a chart-success.

Expect to hear more and more from these London lads!
