Following the success of their debut EP You Shine The Sun, genre-blending five-piece The Sons Of Guns are back with I Got It Right, a radiant new single soaked in sunny ‘70s charm and lyrical optimism.

Nashville’s chaotic punk experimentalists Snooper have announced their second album Worldwide, due for release on 3rd October via Third Man Records.
