WE AERONAUTS – “BOXING DAY”
SINGLE (2014)
Independent
Oxford, United Kingdom
December 26, 2017
‘Boxing Day’ is a sad, sparkling lament perfect for the post-Christmas lull, with a roaring fire and presents all around.
Written seven years ago to the day, the track brings to mind desolate towns and warm winters inside as the cold dwells on the threshold. The band had been squirrelled away for the past year developing their debut album and ‘Boxing Day’ was the first fruit from the tree.
Previous radio support from: BBC Oxford Introducing, Huw Stephens, Steve Lamacq, Tom Robinson, Annie Nightingale.
We Aeronauts have shared stages with: Laura Marling, Johnny Flynn, Jeffrey Lewis, Okkervil River, Allo Darlin’.
We Aeronauts have appeared at: Green Man, Truck, Wilderness, Woolfire, Standon Calling and Iceland Airwaves.
