Fast rising indie band Apollo Junction return with the release of their first new music in over 12 months with the single 'Falling'.
The single arrives following having delivered their third (and best) album ‘Here We Are’ in October 2023 – which placed in the UK Official Album Charts, along with peaking at #12 in the Sales Chart, #7 in the Vinyl Chart and #1 in the Indie Breakers Chart.
The band also embarked on their biggest ever UK tour through spring 2024 and a summer of festival dates and outdoor stages including supporting Richard Ashcroft , Shed Seven and The Sherlocks, performing at the MotoGP at Silverstone supporting The Darkness and playing on the Isle Of Wight Festival Main Stage.
Listen to ‘Falling’ on our Leeds United Fan playlist.
Described by Steve Lamacq on BBC6 music as swaggering electro indie rock, Apollo Junction appeal to audiences who still have a profound love of guitar music, with nods to the iconic sounds of the 80s as well as more contemporary guitar band peers. The band have a passionate, growing fanbase that call themselves the ‘AJFamily’ – there’s been engagements on stage, lifetime friendships formed, coaches to gigs hired and an online community that is pretty much unmatched by any other independent band around at the moment and incredibly welcoming to all.
Apollo Junction songs have been used across a multitude of media outlets, including: Welcome To Wrexham on Disney+, ITV’s World Cup coverage, Ubisoft’s WatchDogs Legion video game, MTV’s Are you the One, Netflix’s series The Circle, BBC1’s Football Focus, numerous features on Match Of The Day and various other adverts and films.
The band also receive continued support across radio with support nationally from BBC Radio 2, BBC 6 Music, Simon Le Bon on his show on Sirius XM in the US and also the late, great Janice Long who did a live session with the band on BBC Radio 2.
