Lincoln indie newcomers The Rills have shared a brand new single ‘Skint Eastwood’, the band’s first release via new label Nice Swan Records.
The track is taken from their incoming EP which will be released early next year.
“Skint Eastwood is a Lincoln loner. He’s a BMX bandit who lurks the streets for affection, be it by begging, stealing or borrowing” explains frontman Mitch Spencer. “Suburban life gives way to people like Skint Eastwood, kids with nothing but the change in their pockets and the rucksack on their backs – cycling into oblivion as much as they are crying out for help. There’s something familiar about that old cowboy cliche; a hard exterior crossed with a soft and vulnerable interior is easily used to describe the lost boys and girls of our generation.”
The band are on the road with Bloxx, before a headline tour in December starting in Leeds on the 7th and finishing up with a homecoming show at Lincoln’s The Scene on the 16th. You can get tickets here.
