These New Knights is the brand new single from Ou Est Le Swimming Pool who’s musical career had taken a huge leap in 2009. After the incredible success of debut single ‘Dance the Way I Feel’ the band are set to return with another floor shaking slice of Electro- Indie.
The last 6 months have been somewhat of a blur for Ou Est Le Swimming pool. Catapulted from the underground to the mainstream, their genre defining beats have pricked the ears of the UK media and gained adoring fans around the UK. These factors have led to tour supports with La Roux and Alphabeat amongst a host of sold out shows and slots at Glastonbury and Bestival to packed crowds.
Their thoroughly unique take on the dance genre has captured the attention of Radio 1’s Fearne Cotton who made ‘Dance The Way I Feel’ record of the week. Nick Grimshaw loves the band and his mum even commented “they should be number one”. Zane Lowe, Annie Mac and Jo Whiley are also huge fans. Support in the dance world came from Arman Van Helden who liked them so music he remixed DTWIF. Expect some remixes of These New knights from a cooler calibre of DJ.
Things are only set to get bigger and busier. They are all set for a UK tour and the album release in June so keep your ears peeled for some extremely tasty festival dates.
Ou Est Le Swimming Pool are Charles Haddon, Joe Hutchinson and Caan Capan. They met little over a year ago in their hometown of Camden honed their live show and 12 months later they are well on their way to becoming everyones new favourte band.
