‘Flex’ is the theatrical new track from Courting, a genre-bending four-piece from Liverpool. At its core, the track is a vivacious piece of power pop that lets lo-fi vocals blend into those indie-inspired guitar chords, before a melodic horn section joins the fold from afar. The accompanying music video is a unique experience that needs to be seen to be fully understood. They state that this latest release is “as sincere as we can be. Sometimes the lines between real life and fiction get blurred here, but we’re nothing if not committed.” Give their debut album Guitar Music a listen while you wait for news on their next release, and be sure to catch them live around the UK this summer. -Dan Peeke.
