Baroque-pop quartet Tugboat Captain sound quintessentially English on their new single No Plans (For This Year). Aided by a brass and strings section they have build a pocket symphony a la The Kinks and The Zombie, with some current indie rock thrown in for good measure. They recorded it at Abbey Road - not during the financially crippling, regular business hours, and the superb acoustics of that facility ensured an open, warm sound. Best enjoyed with some tea and biscuits. Their debut full-length Rut will be released on red vinyl via Double A-Side Records later this year.
