From London’s vibrant underground music scene, Another Day emerge from the swell with a visceral sound that isn’t just heard, it’s felt. Whether it’s backflips on stage or poetry readings from friends like Astille Doherty who often joins the band on stage, their live shows weave together a tapestry of sound, art, and passion. Already they’ve stamped their mark, playing sold out shows at London’s Bush Hall, Camden Assembly and Sebright Arms, performing secret sets at Liverpool’s Cavern – and even being featured in UK Vogue.

Another Day are a band who effortlessly channel the timeless energy of guitar-driven music into a sea of melodic hooks and dynamic transitions. One word to sum them up would be “Life-affirming”. (ok, well that’s technically two), but you get the idea!

Doghouse Roses, the latest release from ANOTHER DAY originated from a serendipitous comment made by a man named Frank, who suggested the phrase “Doghouse Roses” as an alternative band name. With no intention of changing the band’s solidified name, the phrase instantly sparked Louis’ imagination and inspired the song’s hooky chorus that very night. Built around the bittersweet emotions of a messy break-up, Louis wove these fresh ideas into older verses he’d written over a year prior. These fragments fit together seamlessly, creating what we hear today.

Musically the track is hard-hitting and vulnerable in equal part. with driving guitars and a melodic rhythm section, the vocals are both rock infused and gentle. Swaying to and fro before the chanting chrous hook comes forth finishing the track on an undeniable high.

Its a cacophony of emotion and sound.

Recognising it was holding him back, Louis left school in 2020 and locked himself away in the Kent countryside with his brother and cousin and began writing. Constantly. The prolific output of songs led to taking their music to London, instantly finding connection with those that came to watch, discovering the sheer joy of playing live, new friends, and a like-minded community. Crowds get it and are building all the time. What’s gone from an idea of writing songs to selling out Camden Assembly now sees them collaborating with other young talent from the city’s grass roots arts scene and recording in Liverpool.

It seems remarkable to the band, and Louis comments

We’ve been spending a lot of time in Liverpool working with a producer. There’s magic up there and he has been instrumental in developing our sound through our upcoming debut EP, encouraging us to trust the creative process.

When pushed on what’s next, the conversation always comes back to the songs.

The notion that if someone has something to give then there is always someone to receive, has taught us not to be swayed by any external expectations,” says Louis. “We’re doing a disservice to the listener if we don’t give away our true selves. We set no rules when writing so as to give ourselves the highest chance of being receptive to what the universe has to offer.”

Louis further explains “There can be a lot of excitement and aggression in guitar music and we’re working on containing that energy by focusing on the control of our performances and adding a tonal depth and texture to it.

Another Day are: Louis Hillier (21) on lead Vocals / Guitar, Jonte Hillier (19) on Bass, Charlie Kish (20) on Lead Guitar and Mitch Fuller (21) on Drums.

The new single also has an accompanying music video which can be seen here and the band have also recently annouced that they shall be heading out on tour. Please see the band’s socials for all further updates.
