Formed in Liverpool 2018, Seatbelts comprises of James Madden, Ryan Murphy, Abigail Woods, and Alex Quinn. At times reminiscent of Talking Heads and The Go-Betweens with the brooding energy of The Monochrome Set, the group deliver glorious, shining, bouncy pop songs, laden with melodic hooks and considered lyricism. Sharing lead vocal duties, Madden and Murphy (formerly, Hooton Tennis Club), and Woods create their own distinctive worlds within the milieu of the whole.

Since the release of their third EP, ‘Edwyn’, in collaboration with Scottish musician Edwyn Collins (Orange Juice), Seatbelts have taken up residence in the legendary Parr Street Studios (Liverpool) to create their latest effort, ‘Welcome Simplicity’. First single ‘Citylines’ opens the EP with a splash of shimmering guitars and euphoric keyboard drones, with driving energy and vocals reminiscent of early Arcade Fire. Second single, ‘Keep Your Mind On The Feeling’ is an 90s esc upbeat mantra for the happy-silly-fun times. Their fourth EP perfectly lurches between past EP moods and lyrical topics, refining their sound and songwriting to create a perfect balance between classic pop and eccentric pop songs.

Seatbelts debut album 'A World Inbetween' is out now.
