New Release on Platform - Debut single from THE OK SOCIAL CLUB

The Shape of Things to Come is the debut single from Edinburgh's The OK Social Club, one of Scotland’s brightest young bands. Drawing from a diverse range of influences from 50's girl groups to 70's punk, The OK Social Club exhibit their writing talents in full throughout the song - it's guitar driven, with a foot stomping rhythm and unforgettable hooks. This catchy and energetic track has radio play written all over it.

Backed up by two B-Sides - Twist, Learn, Kick and Scream and Twisted Young Gentlemen, this release is a strong mark in the sand from a band with a confident grasp of their own identity.

"it's all about the melody - we're a pop band at the end of the day", says the band's charismatic front-man Raff.

When asked why they chose The Shape Of Things To Come as their debut single, he added, "it's a good representation of what we're about, it's a new song with bags of energy and an indicator of what's to come."

The band will be celebrating the launch of their first single with a gig on 24th March at Electric Circus in Edinburgh, followed by a UK tour in April.

Guitarist Chris Finn says "It's been great fun recording these songs, but I've missed playing live, I can't wait to play in front of people again. Our first demos were played on local and national radio shows which led to us gigging up and down the country, hopefully this single will help us build on that."

The Shape Of Things To Come is released April 2nd 2012 on Platform Records
