With Huw Stephens (Radio 1, BBC Introducing, Radio 6 Music) calling the band "Ones To Watch in 2019" and the band confirmed for SXSW and New Colossus in the USA, The Great Escape, as well as embarking on their first full headline UK tour, the stage is all set for the Brighton-based alt-pop quartet to build on the love and success of 2018's Losers/Lover EP. 2018 was a stellar year for the band, which saw the Orchards live show go from strength to strength on tour dates alongside Tiny Moving Parts; selling out their own debut headline London show; support slots with Hippo Campus, Fatherson and more; and a string of packed festival appearances at ArcTanGent, TRUCK, The Great Escape, and Hit The North among many others.Praise for the band's latest material flooded in from BBC 6Music, Noisey, The Line of Best Fit, DIY, Alternative Press, Pop Matters, DORK, UPSET and a host of blogs and zines.Now in 2019, with all these exciting dates to come the band are set to release a new 7" single featuring brand-new songs Young and Mature Me to coincide with their UK tour. Sounding bigger. brighter and more ambitious, these summery, glittery songs are the sound of a band exploring their creativity and knocking their songwriting and musicianship up yet another gear, offering a tantalizing glimpse into what their incoming debut record might offer later in the year.
