THE OK SOCIAL CLUB - New Single 'Threads'

It’s been 12 months since The OK Social Club released their debut album 'Nothing In Common'. The album yielded 3 singles - 'The Shape Of Things To Come', 'The Late 90’s' and 'Gezellig', with their music appearing on various TV and Radio shows including Soccer AM, Sunday Brunch, Hollyoaks, BBC Radio One Introducing and ‘Single of the month’ on BBC’s The Janice Forsyth Show. The band also won Steve Lamacq’s Rebel Playlist feature.

They spent most of 2013 playing around the UK and Europe including appearances at Edinburgh’s Hogmanay, and The Wickerman festival in Scotland. They also won Best Live Act at the Scottish AIternative Music Awards. They are now back in the studio recording their follow up to be released later this year.

The first single to be released from their second album is 'Threads' accompanied by b-side 'Made In The Shade'.

The band felt that 'Threads' was received well while on tour and decided it would be a great introduction to the new album. Frontman Raff Eragona said “Of all the new songs, ‘Threads’ is the closest thing to anything from ‘Nothing In Common’ but has hints of what to expect from our next record. We’re all very excited to release new music.”
