Beating Hearts Club


Hands up who remembers a local Bournemouth band called The Flyaways, they were together between 2010/2013 and were together for about three years. They played a lot of local gigs in Dorset/Hampshire with shows at Mr Kyps, O’Neill’s, Joiners, Chaplin’s Cellar Bar and the Thomas Tripp in Christchurch. They got a small distribution deal and recorded their debut album, but unfortunately, they split up before they could release it. One of the band members Peter Holt moved to Australia in 2014 and joined a band called Beating Hearts Club and they have been together for four years and have done three National tours in Australia.

Beating Hearts Club

Peter has kindly sent me a copy of his bands new single ‘Black & White Love’; the band were lucky enough to get a chance at recording with an Emmy award-winning producer Sean Carey, at Church Street Studios Sydney. The song is taken from their (soon to be released) debut album Freedom & Rebellion. It’s an emotionally rousing piece of music written about a moment of realisation. It is trying to address a love for someone who is able to take you from a low point and bring you back to where you need to be. The band use a combination of piano and guitars to generate some delicate melodies, which combine well with the stirring vocals. It’s thoroughly radio-friendly with a distinct Summer vibe to it.

Lyrics
Bright eyes and pretty face
Will you meet me in the morning?
Since I have found my place
I can’t look back
I’m standing on the rocks where I’d once fallen
I sleep and call your name
Reach out, it’s you I’m holding
Since I have found my place
I’m on my feet I stare into your soul and I am home

Could you be the reason?
You know I need you
Seen my last chance die
But I’m still breathing
Do you feel what I’m feeling?
You know I need you
Shook me upside down
And I saw meaning

Your black & white love
My one adventurer
Well, when temptation comes
It’s clear to see that you’re the only one I’m thinking of

Could you be the reason?
You know I need you
Seen my last chance die
But I’m still breathing
Do you feel what I’m feeling?
You know I need you
Shook me upside down
And I saw meaning

Bright eyes and pretty face
Will you meet me in the morning?
