Nice Swan

Sprints unveil a new EP A Modern Job on Nice Swan Records. Lyrically, Modern Job finds singer Karla Chubb at her sardonic and angry best, detailing her own personal wish-list "I wish I had the guts/I wish I had the gall/ I wish I had a girl" - all set to cascading guitars and a formidable rhythm section; working in unison to create unrelenting tension, all the while echoing the subject matter Chubb explores in her lyrics.

Sprints combine guitar-driven hooks, motoric rhythm and emotive lyricism to create a unique sound that pulls from garage, grunge, punk and beyond. Like the Irish guitar acts who have paved the way for them: Fontaines D.C., Silverbacks and Girl Band, the sound of Sprints is urgent and vital at every turn.

Sprints have hit a nerve. Driven by experience, tough political climates and social and economic uncertainty - their music is honest, often politically charged and authentic.
