Strap in for the electrifying ride with Electric Pets, the Derby-based quartet fronted by singer-songwriter Emma Buckley. Their sound? A fusion of vintage garage rock, surf, blues, and 60s girl groups, all framed with a 21st Century twist. Bursting onto the scene in 2022 via Reckless Yes label, they’ve quickly become BBC Introducing favorites and garnered praise from Radio X’s John Kennedy. Their latest release, Then We Kissed, channels indie rock vibes, yet carries a timeless pop anthem feel. It also marks a departure into indie rock territory, drawing comparisons to the raw, bluesy energy of The White Stripes. Guitarist Phil Wagg penned the song back in the noughties, infusing it with a rich history that shines through in its fuzzed-out, stripped-down sound. Yet, it’s the unforgettable anthem-like pop chorus that truly sets it apart, making it an instant earworm.
With Then We Kissed, Electric Pets continue to push boundaries and captivate audiences with their infectious energy and irresistible hooks.
