The Asteroids Galaxy Tour
The Sun Ain't Shining No More

Small Giants

WE SAY

Copenhagen natives The Asteroids Galaxy Tour release this quality track as their debut single, reviving a sunshine pop sound with more than a nod to The B-52's. Together just a year, the six piece have played support to Amy Winehouse in Denmark and sound like a compelling pop prospect. R1 play has come from Jo Whiley, and R2 support from Dermot O'Leary, who had them in for a session, and Chris Evans, Radcliffe & Maconie. A couple of UK shows will be announced for the week of release, with a tour later on in the year. Video. JF
