Championed by celebrities such as Clint Boon and John Robb, CONTROL OF THE GOING are a wall of sound Rock & Roll six-piece, dashed with psychedelia.
Their gigs and debut single ‘She’ released in February 2017, have received rave reviews and opened up an American audience via KEXP radio and worldwide on internet based radio shows. Recently KEXP’s DJ Shannon selected the bands debut album as one of the stations ‘most anticipated’ albums of 2018.
Their first album ‘I Love You But It’s Going To Rain’ is set for release 23rd February 2018, via Sister 9 Recordings accompanied by a well-formed PR campaign. KEXP radio were the first to air an album track, and picked ‘Love you more’ as a taster of an ‘insanely good’ album and have since included the track on their podcast which regularly attracts 10,00 plus listeners.
The band recently played their biggest show to date at Gorilla, Manchester to a crowd of over 400 people.
Clint Boon is a public advocate of the band, sharing a video of himself playing ‘She’ on Twitter and Facebook. He has since chosen the band twice as his ‘One To Watch’, firstly in an article ‘Clint’s Hint’ in The Live Guide, and next to represent him at "Off the record", an industry convention, followed by a series of secret gigs in Manchester’s Northern Quarter curated by by leading industry figures.
Needless to say, after being selected by panellists from the music industry, CONTROL were raring to go and their performance stood out to one of the largest crowds attracted all night. The event sold out its 900 tickets and was a huge success for the band.
