(Crammerock Fest, Belgium)

New album: GET UP SEQUENCES PART TWO
Release: 3 February 2023 – pre-order info here

It features guest appearances from Apples In Stereo’s Hilarie Bratset,
Lucie Too’s Kokubo Chisato, Neha Hatwar, the Star Feminine Band, Nitty
Scott, and more.

Ian Parton (the band’s founder): “Get Up Sequences Part Two is an
international patchwork. A global fruit salad. A United Nations of Sound.”


Artwork new album

Lead single: DIVEBOMB feat. Detroit rapper IndigoYaj

Parton: “Protest songs have always been a balancing act. If you’re
too sledgehammer it’s cringey – like the Scorpions’ ‘Winds of Change’
or something – but at the same time given the stuff they’re trying
to pull with abortion rights it feels weird to ignore it.”

This spry tune is an ideal one to get up, to face a new day, to hope that
everyone feels the same lust for life and at least try to give humankind’s
future a chance.

The Record To Play At The EURO 2020 Games – ‘GET UP SEQUENCES PART ONE’ By THE GO! TEAM

Posted on by JL

3 July 2021

Band: THE GO! TEAM
Who: Brighton’s exhilarating soul/funk/pop 6-piece band
Active: Since 2000 / 6 studio albums (including this new one)

New album: GET UP SEQUENCES PART ONE
Released: 2 July 2021 via Memphis Industries
Press info: “It’s a place where routine is outlawed and perfection is the
enemy. Where Ennio Morricone meets the Monkees armed with flutes,
glockenspiels, steel drums and a badass analogue attitude. We’re talking
widescreen, four-track, channel hopping sounds that are instantly
recognisable.”

Turn Up The Volume: I wonder how legendary music orchestras such as Sly and The Family Stone, The Jackson Five and Parliament would sound right now, right here. I go for
The Go! Team. Similar upbeat spirit, similar party vibes, similar multi-voiced joyousness and similar live pizzaz (I saw and heard how they woke up a crowd at a Belgian festival a couple of years ago). This go(al) team should play Euro 2020… on all stadiums’ stereos, uniting all people present there and at watching at home.

THE GO! TEAM With Detroit Teenager On Vocals – Hear New Single ‘A BEE WITHOUT ITS STING’

New sonic impulses…

16 June 2021

Band: THE GO! TEAM
Who: Brighton’s exhilarating soul/funk/pop 6-piece band
Active: Since 2000 / 6 studio albums (including new one)

New album: GET UP SEQUENCES PART ONE
Out: 2 July 2021 via Memphis Industries
Press info: “It’s a place where routine is outlawed and perfection is the
enemy. Where Ennio Morricone meets the Monkees armed with flutes,
glockenspiels, steel drums and a badass analogue attitude. We’re talking
widescreen, four-track, channel hopping sounds that are instantly
recognisable.”

New single: A BEE WITHOUT ITS STING
Already the 4th single from the upcoming LP.

Ian Parton (the team captain): ““When I was working on the last Go! Team record
‘Semicircle’ I approached the choir leader of a Detroit school called the Detroit Academy
For Arts And Sciences and asked if any of her students were interested in singing on a
Go! Team song. So when it came to finding the singer for ‘A Bee Without Its Sting’ I thought
again of the choir. One of the singers was a teenager called Jessie Miller whose voice was
perfect for the song. She’d never been into a recording studio before, but her voice is so
full of character.”

Seems like The Jacksons 5 are back in town.
