Rookie indie band Sea Girls has revealed a new music video for their latest single, “Do You Really Wanna Know?“. The track is cut from their recently announced debut studio album, ‘Open Up Your Head‘, which will be released on August 14 via Polydor Records.
The four-piece newcomer is gearing up for making gigantic impacts on the UK music scene. After sharing a string of singles and four impressive EPs, the London lands are jumpstarting their first proper era with debut album ‘Open Up Your Head‘.
“Do You Really Wanna Know?” is the first of fourteen tracks picked as the introduction. “I’ve been overthinking all of my life. They’ll ask me up in Heaven why I fell on my knife,” the track kicks off with such moody and depressing lyrics about mental health and self-deprecation. How ubiquitous of those lyrics nowadays!
But what makes the track an infectious indie banger is the hook that goes, “Do you really wanna know what I’d change about myself? Do you really wanna know who’s been messing with my health?” And, yes, with such catchiness like this, we definitely want to know!
Francesca de Bassa helps crafting an animated visual for the tune, with various images of the bandmates collected to make infinite confusing yet amazing collages that perfectly fit the song’s mood. Have a listen to the track and check out the video below.
Formed in 2015, Sea Girls consist of four Londoners, including Henry Camamile (vocals, guitar), Rory Young (lead guitar), Andrew Noswad (bass), and Oli Khan (drums). Their styles are anthemic indie tunes that remind us the work by indie heroes like Circa Waves, Sundara Karma, and Sam Fender.
Their first release was the ‘Call Me Out‘ EP, followed by three more: ‘Heavenly War‘, ‘Adored‘, and ‘Under Exit Lights‘. Their hype has been so high that they have been invited to perform at big music events like BBC’s The Biggest Weekend and the Reading and Leeds Festivals. What’s more, they were included in the BBC’s Sound of 2019 poll.
This upcoming August, the group will unveil their very first full-length, ‘Open Up Your Head‘. The album comprises fourteen tracks, including their previous hits like “Violet” and “Ready for More“.
Frontman Henry Camamile talked with Dork about the record’s background and how it was “really important”: “To my friends, to the band and to my family about how I really felt. I think this album is really important because there’s a shitload of truth there.”
“It really is opening up mine and the guys’ heads and pouring out songs and pouring out truth. I think it’s really important, y’ know? We’re going to put the album out, and I’m going to talk truthfully about it.”
Sea Girls will go back on the road for the UK tour again this November, with four shows in main cities. Visit See Tickets for available tickets, and both physical and digital copies of the debut album are up now.
