Something of a dark horse in the running, People Club only formed in 2018. They are based in Berlin but hail from the UK, Australia, US and New Zealand. They met via the modern day equivalent of the musicians seeking ad: Social media. Inasmuch as I can tell, I think 'Lay Down Your Weapons' is their third single. It has a brooding synth-y wonky undertone that is overlaid with pure garage rock assertiveness: MC5 meets The Normal via early Yeah Yeah Yeahs. Apparently they're really into Motown, which is interesting as you'd put your money on Nuggets instead really, but it just goes to show you can't always tell. Previous singles have already created a media buzz and its easy to see why. Expect to hear much more of them in 2021.
