Newcastle’s The Old Pink House have been causing a stir locally and beyond over the past 18 months with a string of 80s inflected cosmic-pop singles. New track ‘JADED’ is the second cut from their forthcoming debut EP, and continues the quartet’s neon march into the national scene’s collective consciousness.

Of this latest release, frontman Christopher Brown explains “Jaded is about how things we go through wear us down. I’m naturally a pessimistic person and the lyrics are shot through with that sense of cynicism, but at the same time I’m always trying to peel away at it as it traps us in a vicious cycle where we become more and more numb to everything around us. With the way everything in the world is going now, it’s the last thing anyone needs.”

Supported by Huw Stephens and Phil Taggart at BBC Radio 1, and making appearances at some of the UK’s premier tastemaker festivals in Live At Leeds, Neighbourhood and Meet the North, as well as support slots with the likes of Manic Street Preachers, Anteros and The Amazons, The Old Pink House are breaking beyond the boundaries of their North East nest.

Following a sell-out at last October’s headline show at Think Tank in Newcastle, they’ve announced an even bigger show at rite-of-passage venue The Cluny this August. As well as this there are upcoming slots at their hometown’s Hit the North festival and the renowned Live at Leeds festival. One of the North Easts most acclaimed live acts are certainly keeping busy.

JADED was produced by The Old Pink House and Chris McManus, and mastered by Robin Schmidt at 24-96 Mastering, and is available to stream and download now.

“The Newcastle based trio brim with life and invention” Clash

Newcastle trio The Old Pink House have been causing a stir locally and beyond over the past 12 months with a string of 80s inflected cosmic-pop singles, and new cut ‘NECK DEEP’ continues the neon march. TOPH are taking a further step into the national scene’s collective consciousness.

A swirling riff begins proceedings, leading into a verse showcasing Christopher Brown’s imperious vocals, which then deliver the track’s central hook with swagger. “’Neck Deep’ was one of the first tracks that was written collaboratively as a band.” Brown explains, “Previously our process had been a lot more singular, but this song came together really naturally in our dingy little rehearsal room. I don’t usually like to say what songs are specifically about, but at its core, it’s ultimately about how relationships can be swallowed up by secrets.”

Supported by Huw Stephens and Phil Taggart at Radio 1, and making appearances at some of the UK’s premiere tastemaker festivals in Neighbourhood, Twisterella and Meet the North, as well as support slots with the likes of Anteros and The Amazons, TOPH are breaking beyond the boundaries of their North East nest.

Following a sell-out at their July headline show at Jumpin’ Jacks in Newcastle, they’re taking in the city’s prestigious Think Tank on October 27th with tickets selling fast. They’ll also be playing Live at Leeds’ Ones to Watch show in November at The Wardrobe.

‘NECK DEEP’ is self-released and out now on all streaming and download platforms.
