Messy nights and hungover mornings get their own anthem on the latest from AWAY FANS. The London indie-dance five-piece have released “Perfect Moment,” a distorted, high-octane indie-rock dance track that BBC Introducing London premiered ahead of its release. It’s out now.
The band describe themselves as a five-piece built to get everyone dancing, screaming, and misbehaving, and the new single delivers exactly that. “Perfect Moment is an ode to messy nights and hungover mornings with the people you love,” they say. “It’s a celebration of youthful stupidity and hedonism, as well as the long-lasting connections we can make in all the silliness. Inspired by bands such as The Streets, and taking elements of UKG, whilst in-keeping with the current wave of danceable, clever indie from bands such as Wet Leg, Drycleaning, and Getdown Services.”
Formed in the early 2020s, AWAY FANS bring a comprehensive, electric live show that others have described as an infectious dirty dance with propulsive disco rhythms. The lineup is Tom Fisher (vocals), Alice Seymour (vocals), Alex Boffey (guitar and synth), David Lewins (bass and vocals), and Matt Foley (drums).
They had a prolific 2025, releasing “Take” in March, the ‘Honey EP’ in June, and “Keeping On” in October, all well received by radio and press. Fame Mag praised the way they swap guitar grit for club sweat, fusing indie-rock bite with rave energy, while OBS Mag pointed to a sound laced with murky post-punk attitude and Madchester rave grooves, bound together by London grit.
“Perfect Moment” carries all of that forward, fresh and genre-blending and built for the dancefloor. The track was written collectively by the band, recorded, produced, and mixed by Harri Chambers at Zigzag Studios, and mastered by Shuta Shinoda.
