The Vamps on new single: 'I think it’s one of our best live tracks'

The Vamps have explained why they chose to release the track 'Oh Cecilia' as their latest single.

The lads will unleash the track on October 12 as the latest cut from their debut album 'Meet The Vamps'.

Speaking to Capital FM, the band said that the reworking of Simon and Garfunkel's classic song was an obvious choice for their next single.

Brad Simpson said: "We’d all obviously heard it around the house from our parents playing it. It just really worked for us, and it just felt really upbeat and the chorus is such a great chorus as well so we kind of knew as soon as we heard it that we wanted to do it."

He added: "We’ve always kind of had a soft spot for that song because we have been playing it since day one. I think it’s one of the best live tracks, that always is a big indication for us as to what would translate to a good single because I think it’s a good determiner when you play it to a crowd, and it’s fun. We were just very happy with it as a single."

The track will feature the song 'Hurricane' as a B-side.
