Line Up: Hallo Tour 2025
Belgian powerhouse SONS today release their new single ‘Do My Thing’, taken from their new album ‘Hallo’, scheduled for release on September 26 through [PIAS] Recordings.
Groovy, infectious and highly danceable ‘Do My Thing’ proves that SONS dares to question its hardcore punk sound and is not afraid to experiment. With the prospect of broadening their musical territory for the follow up album to 2022’s ‘Sweet Boy’ the band contacted Dave McCracken. Known for shaping the sexy groove of dEUS classic ‘The Architect’, the British producer has an impressive resume having worked with Stone Roses’ frontman Ian Brown, A$AP Rocky, Beyoncé and Depeche Mode amongst others. McCracken loved the band’s new demos and, after having made several trips to their hometown to help whip the songs into shape, invited them to record in London.
SONS greedily feasted on his skills and knowledge. “He took us completely out of our comfort zone,” says singer/guitarist Robin Borghgraef. ‘Do My Thing’, the first single taken from the new album, is based on an unforgettable night out with McCracken and is the fastest-written song on the new record. “It’s about enjoying the moment and just doing your own thing. Sometimes our songs are self-explanatory”, laughs Robin.
With ‘Hallo’, the Belgian four-piece enter a new era, one in which their explosive garage rock gives way to songs that now also shine and sparkle. “Hallo” is the sound of youth unleashed. Of lives lived and experience knocking on your door. “Hello, we are SONS!”
