Belfast-based band Foreign Mornings have released their new single, Lets Go Home. We asked them the BIG questions . . .
Influenced by Foo Fighters, Nirvana, The Cure and Pixies, they released their debut song Sleepwalking last year and plan a string of singles ready to go, leading up to the release of their debut album 4am later this year.
Speaking about the new song, the band say, "The track is about someone who is introverted and doesn't necessarily want to be, about being lonely and trying to find someone to share your life with."
Tell us three things about yourself . . .
We all love The Foo Fighters. We've got an album coming out later this year. We all live two minutes away from each other.
