Artist's Biography
The
new single ‘Skinny Dipping’ by indie band The Rogues - OUT NOW (August 10th
2023)
We’re The Rogues. A 5-piece indie-rock n roll band from Newport, South
Wales. Our new single ‘Skinny Dipping’ is OUT NOW. We have spent the last 12
months relentlessly gigging Wales and England, building up a loyal army of
ever growing fans along the way, our #roguearmy.
(Quote by Gavin Facey of Dirty Carrot Records) “'Indie' music, whatever that
might be, is ubiquitous, but every now and then a band pops up that really
excites and conjures up songs that stay wedged in your head. The Rogues is
that band”
A few words about 'Skinny Dipping' from singer and lyricist Andrew
Flannelly:
Skinny Dipping is an uplifting, high energy 3 minute song that encapsulates
the freedom of a youthful summer, with an unfolding romance that threatens
to burn out as fast as summer itself.
As the warmth of the song builds, a change of vocals in the bridge sets up a
larger than life chorus, when the mood, humidity and the reality check of a
bustling environment comes together.
With jangly guitars and a bustling rhythm section backing up the youthful
harmonies, a colourful picture is painted of a loveable dickhead (or, if you
like, rogue!) becoming seemingly reckless, as the pace of the song runs
parallel to living life in the fast lane.
The Rogues are:
Andrew Flannelly - Acoustic Guitar + Lead Vocals
Rhodri Eley - Lead Guitar + Backing Vocals
Alex Ainsworth - Lead Guitar + Backing Vocals
Ben Slade - Bass
James Mundy - Drums
‘Skinny Dipping’ was recorded by Tom Auton at Longwave Studios, Cardiff.
