The 502s
RELEASE ‘JUST ANOTHER’ EP
OUT TODAY, 23 SEPTEMBER
LISTEN TO BRAND NEW FEATURED SINGLE:
“JUST ANOTHER SONG”
+ UK TOUR THIS OCTOBER/NOVEMBER
Floridian folk-pop sextet The 502s have released new music in the ‘Just Another’ EP, and unveil its feel-good focus track “Just Another Song”.
A sunny late-summer anthem that sees bittersweet melodies, jovial banjo licks and jangling percussion shimmer against romantic and reminiscent lyrics, “Just Another Song” is a sentimental slice of folk-pop worthy of big-room singalongs.
With happy-go-lucky instrumentals and a wistful sense of nostalgia, the song features on the six-piece’s brand new four-track release entitled the ‘Just Another’ EP (also out today). An extended release that sees the band revel in the thrill of living out their dreams, yet resilient in the face of heartbreak and the relentless upheaval that comes with the passage of time, The 502s explain:
“One of our favourite things in the world is to write and record music, so it is with absolute excitement that we announce a new little EP for you all. The songs are fun, nostalgic, reflective and singalong worthy, and we hope you love them. We’ve been blasting them in the van for the past three months, so we think you will.”
Combining the familiar folk-pop singalongs of The Lumineers with the swelling instrumental energy of Edward Sharpe & The Magnetic Zeros, The 502s have become renowned for their breezy bluegrass sound. Currently on a hot streak, expect much more from The 502s in the coming months. As the sextet tease:
“It’s also worth sharing that this EP is the start of a lot of new music from your boys. The last year has been crazy awesome… the virality of “Just A Little While”, the insane live shows, all the meet and greets, multiple international trips. We have been living, smiling and writing a lot… the next full length album is not far behind this new EP.”
Bringing their sunny melodies and riotous live energy to UK shores this Autumn, the band will be performing songs from the ‘Just Another’ EP at gigs in Manchester and Glasgow, plus a headline appearance at London’s legendary Scala. Catch the band at these dates follows:
