The Go! Team have released a new single from their upcoming new album.
Band leader Ian Parton explains: “‘All the Way Live’ is just an all out brass attack set to some pretty cheeky rapping. Lots of the voices are sampled from a record made as a kinda after school hip hop project by students of Carver Senior High, Chicago in 1983.
“We managed to track down the teacher behind the project – Mr. Harris to clear it. It wasn’t really the fact it was old skool that attracted me but the personality and cheekiness that was jumping off the vinyl. It’s always about personality over perfection for me…”
‘All the Way Live’ is taken from ‘Semicircle’, due for release on 19th January. They’ve a handful of new shows in support of the album too, their first since 2015.
Catch them at:

09 Glasgow, Oran Mor
