Sprints - The Cheek / Kissing Practice - 7" AA

Dublin-based four piece, Sprints are the latest new act to emerge from the city fast becoming one of the most prolific places for hot new bands. With the recent success of other locals Fontaines DC, Girl Band & Silverbacks – Sprints are the latest in line ready to burst out of the city having just formed last year and are already creating a wave of excitement across Dublin with early single, ‘Kissing Practice’.

Their creative process is very much rooted to the everyday goings on around them and just like a true garage band, write and rehearse in their village home’s back garden shed. Taking things to the next level, they were quick to team up with Girl Band’s Daniel Fox who has been producing them in his studio. Drawing influence from the likes of Sonic Youth, Iggy Pop, Patti Smith, The Strokes and LCD Soundsystem – there is a fun, energetic and retro feel to what they do but very much sounding as fresh and exciting as their local peers. The Cheek is a raw, raucous and bass fuelled single with post-punk and alt-rock influences. Laced with sarcasm, the song tackles sexuality head on.
