"Like a lone voice in the dark."

- Steve Lamacq, BBC 6Music

Manchester’s Stalagmites present their captivating blend of alt-indie and dark pop with the release of their debut single Binary, out on 9th June 2017 via Veta Records.

The single is available to stream and download via the band's Soundcloud page now.



Lead singer Bradley Lynch explains Binary is about “coming from a dark place and finding a way out, hoping it might be a simple switch but knowing it’s much more than that”. As each instrument comes together, new layers are added bringing fuzzy guitars, melodic bass and minimalist electronics together. The feeling is almost hypnotic, sitting perfectly alongside Bradley’s warm and melancholic vocals.

Bradley (lead vocals / bass) and Alex Hardman (guitar) initially formed Stalagmites at school in Salford in 2010. After their first drummer left, they found Nick Toft (drums) two years later, immediately fitting right in with the lads’ personalities, wider musical tastes and discipline. The trio have already received praise from the likes of BBC 6Music’s Steve Lamacq and Radio X’s John Kennedy to name but a few.

Stalagmites have signed to London’s Veta Records for the release of Binary, with more material to come later this year.

Binary is out 9th June 2017 via Veta Records.
