The wait is over! The Bluetones, one of the UK’s most beloved indie rock bands, are back with a bang after a 14-year break from the studio. Their brand-new EP, ‘Drive Thru’, is out now, marking the start of an exciting trilogy and the launch of their very own label, Brainhole Records. The West London legends are ready to dive back into the music scene with renewed energy and their signature sound that made them icons of the Britpop era.

Formed in 1993, The Bluetones quickly became staples of British rock, scoring thirteen Top 40 singles and three Top 10 albums, all while crafting timeless tracks that continue to resonate with fans today. Now, after years of successful tours and revisiting their classics, they’re set to kick off a thrilling new chapter in their storied career.

“Drive Thru”, the lead single, gives us a glimpse of what’s to come. It’s a raw, powerful anthem about embracing the future and letting go of old expectations. “This song is about abandoning the past and embracing the unknown,” says frontman Mark Morriss. “It’s about not being tied down by other people’s perceptions of you and just going for it. Plus, it rocks.

With Mark Morriss on vocals, Adam Devlin on guitar, Scott Morriss on bass, and Eds Chesters on drums, The Bluetones’ lineup remains as solid as ever, and their new music crackles with the same spirit that made them a household name. “Drive Thru” is just the beginning—fans can expect more music from the trilogy over the next 6-8 months.

Get ready for a thrilling ride—The Bluetones are back, and they’re better than ever!
