Q. What is the name of Night Engine’s debut single?

Please email answers to raya {at} birminghampromoters.com by midday on Thurs 13th June 2013.

In October 2012, Night Engine uploaded their first track, ‘I’ll Make It Worth Your While’, to Soundcloud. In that same month, they played their debut London show at the Sebright arms. It was a total sell out and prompted Louder Than War to note that ‘Infallibly perfect bands don’t come around every day’ by way of explanation.

Even the Americans seemed to want to be in at the beginning with MTVHive.com declaring ‘This band is pretty awesome’. A single of the week on The Guardian music podcast and the bold assertion that ‘this is a swaggering, sexy hit waiting to happen’ made sure that, if you missed it, Night Engine were very firmly in the ones to watch category for 2013, a fact confirmed when The Guardian ran two pages on them in their Tips for 2013 issue.

Debut single ‘Seventeen’/‘Treat Me Like A Baby’ was released in February 2013 via Demand Vinyl, followed by a string of support slots with Kaiser Chiefs and Electric Guest. Now the band take to the road for their first headline UK tour in June 2013.

“Their sound is a kind of razor-sharp European art-pop – there’s an audibly huge Bowie influence, although you can hear shades of Talking Heads and Idiot-era Iggy Pop about their clipped synth-laden funk” – The Guardian
