Only Child release second featured song from forthcoming fourth album

  • September 21, 2022

Liverpool, May 2021 – Only Child, led by Scouse songwriter Alan O’Hare, announce the follow-up to the critically-acclaimed ‘Straight Lines’.

Taken from the band’s fourth album, due later in 2021, ‘… And The Band Played On’ (out May 28th) is a slice of guitar-led protest pop that will sit nicely alongside Billy Bragg, Elvis Costello and Paul Weller in summer playlists.

“I love a list song,” laughs O’Hare. “From ‘Subterranean Homesick Blues’ to ‘Tokyo Storm Warning’, they’ve provided me with sing-a-long fuel all my life. This is my ‘thank you’ to those teachers who taught me all about three chords and the truth.”

“THOUGHT-DREAMS, WORDS & HONESTY…”

ONLY CHILD RELEASE SECOND FEATURED SONG FROM FROM FOURTH ALBUM

“You can’t have too many tributes to troubadors, particularly when they sound this good…” – Americana UK

‘… And The Band Played On’, released Friday May 28th 2021. Written by Alan O’Hare. Co-produced by Alan O’Hare & Jon Lawton. Musicians: Alan O’Hare, Jon Lawton, Julia Fiebelkorn. Recorded, mixed & mastered by Jon Lawton at Crosstown Studios, Liverpool: www.crosstownstudios.co.uk/
