    WALT DISCO release new goth-pop single “Dancing Shoes”

    2 Mins ReadBy Elicit Magazine

    Today Glaswegian band Walt Disco announce the release of new single ‘Dancing Shoes’ on Sports Team’s record label, Holm Front Records.

    Poised delicately between the 80’s New Romance sound and a more modern post-punk approach—’Dancing Shoes’ released today, sees the Glasgow based outfit step things up a gear once more.

    Recorded in Chris McCrory’s home studio (Fat White Family, Goat Girl, Catholic Action) around a similar time to when they recorded 2018-single ‘Drowning In Your Velvet Bed’, the new single has been a staple in their live shows for over a year and a half.

    “I wrote Dancing Shoes about a year and a half ago,” singer James Potter notes. “It was during a time in my life where I was really struggling to deal with noticing pain and depression within my immediate family and found it difficult to talk about, so I used the writing of this song as therapy. It is very sad but I feel better now it’s written and hope others can take comfort from the song too.”

    Walt Disco says: “We’re so happy to be working with our good friends Sports Team to release ‘Dancing Shoes Won’t Fix My Mind’ on their label Holm Front. The 7” single is a celebration of who we are and of other queer artists in Glasgow. The cover was taken by the endlessly talented Dylan Moore. The remix of ‘Dancing Shoes’ was done by producer and performance artist TAAHLIAH, and the release also includes our previously digitally released single ‘My Pop Sensibilities’ co-written with my flatmate Haydn of The Ninth Wave that has yet to be pressed to vinyl. We’re so proud of this and we hope you enjoy it!”
