In the world of indie-pop, it can be hard to make a truly distinct sound. The genre has become so defined by the same few chords, the same beat arrangement and the same line-up of a group of guys and gals looking through their overgrown hair, too cool for school, that in order to stand out you must truly be offering something that no other band is.

As if by design, OUTLYA are the first new indie-pop band in a while who are “arena ready”. Their songs are original, have a message and are chant worthy. The band have been proving this at sets this Summer at The Great Escape, Latitude and Reading & Leeds as well as supporting Maggie Rogers, Dan Croll and more.

Talking about having a message – the latest single ‘Howl’ is an ode to the way we communicate now that everyone is so in-reach at all times.

We have a feeling that in the coming months, communicating with fans is going to be no issue at all.
