Communion Records, the label behind releases from the likes of Michael Kiwanuka, Daughter and Catfish and the Bottlemen, is launching a singles club.
Four singles will be released by different bands through the club this year, the first being Warrington indie rockers Viola Beach.
Communion boss Jamie Emsell told CMU: ‘In the early days of the label, Communion was entirely focused on putting out seven-inch singles and ten-inch EPs. Like most new labels, that was out of necessity - albums are expensive to make and release! - but we also loved the immediacy of putting music out that reflected a moment in time; one great day in the studio, or one short productive burst of songwriting.
‘With the Communion Singles Club we hope to echo some of that magic, releasing brilliant songs by mostly new artists who we think have something to say.’
Viola Beach will headline a BBC Introducing curated Club NME night at Koko in London on 29 January.
