Brighton alt-rock trio Bones Ate Arfa release the anticipated new EP ‘Just Bananas’.With a growing sense of momentum, the band have most recently hit over 120k TikTok followers and linked up with skating brand Wasted Paris and are heading on a UK tour to support the EP release.
Made up of Bones (guitar), 8 (drums), and Arfa (vocals & bass), the trio have made a significant mark on the UK’s southeastern gig circuit within a short period and continue to showcase what an exciting up and coming band they are.
Building soundscapes that blend the energy of punk, the riff heavy approach of alt-rock, and some infectious and melodic vocal melodies, the band have become renowned for their instantly recognisable sound. Punching drums, fuzzy guitar and driving bass tones flow across the ‘Just Bananas’ EP as the band showcase their most complete work to date.
Following a wave of national acclaim across the likes of Dork, 1883, Clash, Punk News, Louder Than War, New Noise, BBC Radio 6 Music, Radio X, Earmilk, Total Rock, Ones To Watch and Amazing Radio (A-List) the band are set to head on a mammoth UK tour through April to support their EP release. Describing their sound as psychedelic-street-punk-desert-rock, the trio (Bones on guitar, 8 on drums, and Arfa on vocals & bass) have gained recognition online and made fans of a number of renowned artists such as Muse, Fred Durst (Limp Bizkit), Isaac Holman (SOFT PLAY), Royal Blood, Tigercub, cool sorcery, Demob Happy, and Bad Nerves.
