Jamaican Queens - Kids Get Away

Indiedance. Singer/songwriter Ryan Spencer said he drew inspiration from a vicious attack a friend of his suffered in Detroit.
Says Spencer: "I wrote this song to myself as a reminder that I live in a very dangerous place and that I shouldn't be so naive. Violence is everywhere, and though I'm more likely to be victimized in Detroit than almost anywhere else, this city also has so much going for it that no other place I've ever been does. The possibility of violence is no reason to flee what I feel to be the best place I've ever lived. This song is a reminder to myself of that. Be careful, but don't give in to fear."

The Automatic, The Hoosiers and The 1975 and then out of the blue moved to Nice, France. There and back in the UK they developed their own music style: "radio friendly pop, combining the poeticism of Dry The River with a The Killers-esque instinct".
Einstein's Theory is the first single to be taken from a debut album that will arrive later this year.
