Following 2019's Abbey Road recorded and Mark Gardener (Ride) mixed album 'Eastern Flow', Desert Ships announced the release of new single ‘Neon’ on Friday 23rd July 2021.

’Neon’ is a late night journey through the empty streets of the big city. A dystopian nightmare. Fuzz guitars, a mesmeric bass line and an unorthodox beat underpin the verses, before giving way to a choral explosion of Beach Boys-esque harmonies, and synthesisers. Reverse guitars and haunting organs then work in counterpoint, carrying the listener to a full 3D technicolour finale. It’s current, it’s relatable, it’s infectious, and leaves you breathless and wanting more.

Produced by vocalist/guitarist Mikey Buckley and recorded & mixed at his home studio during the global pandemic, Desert Ships - completed by Daniel McLean (bass/keys) and Claude Trejonis (drums/vocals) with Ant Baker (guitar/vocals) - demonstrate once again the quality of their craft and an astute ear for an entrancing arrangement.
