Opening with upbeat percussion, the single instantly hooks listeners before James Smith’s familiar speak-sing style vocals open the first verse. The catchy bass riff flawlessly compliments the vocals and is later joined by guitar. The chorus is sure to create a great atmosphere when played live thanks to the memorable sarcastic lyrics coupled with the upbeat two phrase melody. Sam Shipstone’s guitar solo after the second chorus breaks the single up before we are greeted with harmonies singing between James Smith and backing vocalists, ending abruptly leaving listeners craving for more.
The infectious melody will make ‘Dream Job’ a fan favourite. Their upcoming UK tour begins in March 2024 celebrating the release of ‘Where’s My Utopia?’ before their largest home town headline show in Millennium Square, Leeds on August 3rd 2024.
