13 bands you can’t miss at RADAR 2025
Next month, RADAR Festival will bring a banging bill to Manchester for three days of music and bants. The line-up is stacked, but here’s a baker’s dozen to have on your radar…
Tropic Gold have followed up their 2023 EP What A Wonderful Experience with massive new single HAPPY…
Tropic Gold have released their first new music of 2024.
Now a duo – comprised of vocalist Jacob Parris and guitarist/programmer Joshua Lee – the band have followed up last year’s What A Wonderful Experience EP with an absolutely ace Bad Omens-esque banger entitled HAPPY.
In a collective statement Tropic Gold explain that, “HAPPY is the conversation of giving up everything you have to be happy, and making sacrifices to gain eternal life and happiness. HAPPY is the thought in your head trying to persuade you to take the gold juice to make you feel better, selling yourself to something higher than you, a preacher, messiah, a prophet. HAPPY connects self-sacrifice for fake happiness, to the end result of feeling terrified after realising what you’ve done.”
