“…a raucous good time blending old school first wave punk and gorgeous pop melody, in the way The Buzzcocks did so many years ago. Truly outstanding.”- Jersey Beat “Make all the uncertainty and adventure of growing up sound like the best days of your life” – UPSET “A ripper that channels sounds from all throughout punk history” – Brooklyn Vegan “Gearing up to be the sound of your summer” – Rock Sound Magazine “Breakneck but bubblegum…pop-tinged punk” – New Noise Magazine “On a take-no-prisoners assault” – Tom Robinson, BBC 6 Music “California compacted into three rowdy minutes” – The Rodeo “Scorching slacker pop” – CLASH “With the runaway popularity of Wet Leg, it makes sense that we’d start hearing more bands from Isle of Wright. If Isle of Wright is going to be the next Seattle, Reminders are a great new addition. Their latest single, “Post Paris Blues” is a great fun song, and a great debut for a band that could be primed to be next to explode.”- If It’s Too Loud |

Isle of Wight indie punks Reminders have released their debut album Best of Beach Punk, via Venn Records (UK) and Wiretap Records (USA). The record is available to order now on CD and 12″ vinyl: USA / UK Lead single ‘Carousel’ was released earlier this year and picked up a groundswell of support from BBC Radio 1, Kerrang! Radio, Triple J, Rock Sound Magazine, Brooklyn Vegan, UPSET and more. Reminders approach punk rock from where they know it best: a forgotten seaside town. Formed on the Isle of Wight in 2017, the band cut their teeth writing songs about teenage lust and suburban boredom, gaining attention after they independently released debut single Water Sports and Major Cities. Fresh-faced and excited, the then-teenagers coined their sound ‘beach punk’; a tongue-in-cheek ode to their hometown that they stand by today. Firmly solidifying their identity as breakneck but bubblegum, a pop-tinged punk band, Reminders work to introduce themselves to anybody willing to listen. After an unexpected hiatus during COVID which delayed the release of their album, the band are now raring and ready to go with their new label homes at Venn and Wiretap and forthcoming tour dates. Already championed at radio by BBC Radio 1, BBC 6Music and BBC Introducing, as well as landing placements on esteemed Spotify and Apple Music editorial playlists alike, they were labelled ‘scorching slacker pop’ by the influential CLASH Magazine, dubbed ‘About to Break’ by UPSET Magazine, and have already shared stages with rock legends and pop stars Liam Gallagher, The Killers, and Camila Cabello. Debut album Best Of Beach Punk released 1st April 2022 Reminders 2022 Live Dates: 01/04/22 – Newcastle, The Black Bull Tickets: reminderstheband.tumblr.com Tickets: reminderstheband.tumblr.com Reminders online: http://www.facebook.com/ |
