Naarm/Melbourne-based outfit Radio Free Alice have today returned with their stellar new single entitled 2010. The new track comes ahead of their inaugural UK visit for a string of festival and headline dates, including two showcases at The Great Escape, Dot To Dot Festival, Live at Leeds and more. “We’ve been playing the song live for almost a year now,” the band say of the track. “Musically we were influenced by early The Cure and The Smiths. The song focuses on the instrumentation rather than the vocals more than any other track on the EP. It’s the first and only song we have with a pretty much totally instrumental chorus.” Take a listen for yourselves below.
