If The Wombats and The Kooks had a lovechild, it might sound something like The Sooks. Their new single “Never Gonna Go” is absolutely infectious. I know you’ll want to crank this song up and put it on repeat.
“This song is about a girl I saw at the beach a few months back. I was with some mates at the beach and I saw this really pretty girl. I didn’t have a guitar or anything but the song just seemed to write itself in my head,” said the band’s guitarist, Keenan Fitzsimons. “Naturally it has a really surf-rock, summer-pop kinda vibe, a contagious chorus that anyone can sing along to and a groovy riff. The first time we played the song at a show, the crowd was already singing along to the chorus by the end which is something we tried to go for. We really like the sing-alongy vibe of the chorus.”
You can guarantee you’ll be humming this one for the rest of the summer.
