UK-based rock band South Arcade have announced plans to release their brand new EP, PLAY!, arriving on November 21 via BKM Artists and LAB Records, in partnership with Atlantic Records. As a teaser from the EP, the band has released the anticipated new single "Drive Myself Home," which just premiered as BBC Radio 1's Hottest Record.
"Drive Myself Home" perfectly captures the band's signature blend of catchy guitar riffs, anthemic choruses, and creative sound-effect-infused hooks. Speaking on the new song, the band says, "'Drive Myself Home' is about realizing that time spent on something or the history attached to it isn't the reason to hold on. What was right once may not be right now, and letting go doesn't make you a bad person; it just means you're doing what's best for you."
The track arrives in the middle of the band’s SOLD OUT debut US headline tour, where fans across the country are already getting a first listen to the song's soaring melodies. Kicking off last week, South Arcade has already played to packed houses in Orlando, Atlanta, and New York, as well as an electrifying set at the Austin City Limits Music Festival. The tour still includes stops in Chicago, Seattle, Los Angeles, Phoenix, and Dallas before wrapping up in Nashville on November 8. Full itinerary listed below with further tour details available HERE.
The new, five-track EP PLAY! will feature their latest singles, "FEAR OF HEIGHTS" and Radio 1 favorite "Supermodels," as well as previously unheard singles "Bleed Out" (Feat. Bilmuri) and "Blood Run Warm." PLAY! is due to be released during their biggest UK and Ireland tour in November, playing some of their largest headline shows to date, including London's O2 Forum Kentish Town. Pre-order/pre-save PLAY! HERE.
The four-piece is rising at an incredible rate, having had one of its busiest years to date. As well as their own headline tours, South Arcade played to huge crowds at Slam Dunk and Radio 1's Big Weekend and, following a riotous headline set of the BBC Introducing stage in 2024, they were invited back onto the main stage at Reading & Leeds this August, sharing the stage with the likes of Limp Bizkit and Bring Me The Horizon. A force to be reckoned with, South Arcade have found a huge following across their social media with over 16.9 million likes on TikTok and a rapidly growing YouTube following after gaining popularity with videos of their rehearsals and live stage antics. With over 1.3 million monthly listeners, last year's EP, 2005, now has over 50 million streams on Spotify alone and includes tracks "stone cold summer," "MOTH KIDS," and "HOW 2 GET AWAY WITH MURDER."
