Stricken City’s guitarist Iain Pettifer once said he “really wanted to be on The OC, and then it got cancelled”. Essentially, Stricken City is a band that one could definitely see taking to the stage of the infamous Bait Shop in The OC and becoming a favourite of Seth Cohen’s.
The London four-piece’s latest single, ‘Lost Art’ instantly lifts your spirits and conjures up memories of the summer, being by the coast with your friends and, most importantly, just having fun.
Combine front woman Rebekah Raa’s striking vocals – which bear a resemblance to Karen O’s distinctive voice – with a quirky melody, consisting of only a guitar, bass and drums, and the end result is captivating indie pop with a twist.
‘Lost Art’ is sure to be dance floor filler in indie clubs across the country. I dare you not to dance when listening to this track.
