Sands Sands EP

‘SANDS’ is the debut EP from London-based multi-instrumentalist SANDS out now via Shower Records. ‘SANDS’ was written by Andrew Sands and recorded with Brett Shaw at 123 Studios (Ghostpoet, Florence and the Machine, Daughter, Roisin Murphy) in Peckham, London.
SANDS began making music early, at the age of 13, quickly becoming obsessed by records and playing drums and guitar in bands, later getting into the recording and engineering side. His musical influences include Neil Young, The Smiths, Bowie, Talk Talk, Stone Roses, Spiritualized, Mark Lanegan, Primal Scream, David Lynch, Echo and the Bunnymen, the Gun Club, QOTSA, Chris Isaak, Grant Lee Buffalo, George Harrison, The Rolling Stones and Italian composer Carlo Rustichelli amongst others!
“Poison in You”, the first single lifted from SANDS upcoming Ep, premiered by CLASH magazine, Wonderland Mag, Music Week & Pop Dust is a hypnotic, gritty song with dark magnetic rhythms and a hint of grunge. It showcases edgy lyrics sung on a slightly upbeat and electric tempo with a sound reminiscent of Spiritualized, PJ Harvey, Type O’ Negative and Arcade Fire.
