Hotly-tipped quartet Kodaline – having been included in the BBC Sound of 2013 long list, MTV’s Brand New for 2013 and also having been featured on the iTunes and Shazam tips for 2013 – will release their new EP, 'The High Hopes EP,' on Monday 18th March.
Having previously debuted two tracks from the EP – a stripped back, acoustic cover of the LCD Soundsystem song 'All My Friends' as well as 'The Answer' that was premièred late last year – 'High Hopes' finds the band at their most brilliantly anthemic, as a delicate piano intro slowly builds before bursting into life on a wave of crashing drums, echoing guitar lines and Steve Garrigan’s heartfelt vocal.
The video for 'High Hopes,' directed by Stevie Russell who directed the video for the band’s track 'All I Want' and which features Irish actor Liam Cunningham – currently starring in Game Of Thrones.
Having played a series of sold out shows in November, the band will embark on a UK tour in February, including an NME Awards show.
