"There is something so blisteringly certain about the Chakras' future, you'd bet your last dime on it" - The Fly
Formed in 2006 in Dublin, Ireland, the London-based alternative rock band the Chakras are still little known as of now (especially on this side of the pond), but that could change soon as June 14 saw their first single, “Build Me a Swan,” get a release. Fronted by Rocky Whitaker (pictured), this outfit merges strong, anthemic pop hooks with a dense, reverb-heavy production recalling other solid UK acts such as Doves, Glasvegas and the Verve—in fact, Chris Potter, who produced the last two Verve LPs, mixed this single.
They currently have an album due for release sometime later this year, but you can listen to “Swan” right here on JPP below.
