“Graze” is taken from the new 3 track EP, Noose, which will be released August 1st on 7″ vinyl and digital download through Local Colour Records. The band will be playing a tiny in-store at Action Records, Preston on Saturday 8th August to celebrate the release.

“The idea for this tune came from listening to Jane’s Addiction’s ‘Just Because’,” on ‘Graze’, explains Downers frontman, and former Me Vs Hero member Bobby Pook. “As we tried new songs and jammed more my vocals took a more soft indie style approach and we made it a more dreamy.”

Pook continues, “The video took ages to shoot, having to change cameras and it having a few different parts. Our friends Simon, Chelsea, Perry, Barry and Rowena helped us out, some of them by putting worms in their mouths and let us film them! Totally stoked with the result. This video brings the vibes home and ties them to the couch. Never to escape again.”

Downers came together in early 2015, as Bobby had already begun writing material for the new project towards the end of his career with Me Vs Hero. Comprised of old school friends and friends from previous musical adventures, as a collective they all had an urge to go back to the 90’s guitar music that got them wanting to play in a band in the first place.

Produced by Bob Cooper (Nai Harvest, Citizen, Self Defense Family, Brawlers, Rob Lynch, Deathwish Inc) ‘Noose’ is the follow up to their self-produced, self-titled debut EP, released May 2015.
