Rising British pop trailblazers Here At Last cement their status as the UK’s most exciting new boy band this week, with the long-awaited release of their debut extended play, ‘EP1’.
Made up of 8 sonically progressive tracks – including previous singles ‘Happy’, ‘All In’, ‘Bloodshot’ and ‘Lovesick’ – the EP sees Zach, Tommy, Pedro, James and Ryan, deliver a well-rounded collection of innovative pop bops that not only showcase their development and growth as a collective, but also their individual talents as gifted songwriters and singers.
In a joint statement, the lads say of the project: “‘Ep1’ is a collection of all of our songs over the last 2 years and shows how much our music has matured. We are extremely excited to show everyone another single that’s been added right at the end that nobody has heard!”
Released independently on the groups own label, HALO Army (the same name given to their devoted, and fiercely loyal fans and followers), the extended play is available on all major streaming platforms, in two different CD’s, as well as each band member having their own special cassette version.
“As this EP comes out, we hope everyone enjoys the cool retro cassettes and CDs. On top of this… everyone gets a free signed poster!! What more could you want?” the quintet joke. “We are over the moon with how this EP has come along and can’t wait to make more.”
To celebrate the projects release, the Here At Last will head out on the road later this year for the Happy You’re Here UK Tour.
Kicking off at Stereo in Glasgow on Friday, October 20th before visiting Birmingham, Manchester, and Bristol, the band will play their final show of the tour in London at Indigo At The O2 on Wednesday October 25th. Tickets for all shows are on-sale now.
News of the tour comes following the groups appearance on the bill at this years BST Hyde Park alongside Take That, The Script and Will Young, and performance at Scotland’s biggest youth festival, Youth Beatz, where they played to a stellar crowd of 40, 000 people!
