 “Master crafters of sweaty, hook-filled, cowbell-clanging dance-pop tipped for great things.” – FACT
 “politically charged post-punk grooves.” – Q

London’s hotly tipped new act Formation will release their debut album Look At The Powerful People on March 24. The band recently shared new single ‘A Friend’, an assured pop number with pulsating synth and clanging cowbells. Watch the visceral video for the new track below.

The London quintet have already grabbed the attention of the UK, including Beats 1’s Zane Lowe and Julie Adenuga who named the band as one of their ‘2017 Breaking Acts’. Further support for Formation comes from international tastemakers at BBC Radio 1 (Annie Mac, Huw Stephens, MistaJam and Clara Amfo) and 6 Music (B-list play listing). With their debut album Look At The Powerful People out next month, Formation are set to ‘hit an ace’ (The Times). Stay tuned for more details.
