Only The Poets Release Intoxicating New Single, Gone By Now

Fresh off the release of their first single of 2024, One More Night, Only The Poets are back with another wind-your-windows-down hit.

Currently undertaking a massive 30-date tour across Europe, the band kicked off the newest OTP era with
the release of Gone By Now – a newly-recorded track that has long stood as a firm fan favourite. Produced
and mixed by Mark Ralph, who has previously worked with legendary artists like RAYE, and Years & Years, Gone By Now soars with oscillating synths and choppy guitars, wrapped around Tommy’s aching vocals.

The release of this new single comes alongside the announcement of a new EP – One More Night – due for release on June 7.

Speaking on the announcement, frontman Tommy Longhurst said, “We’ve taken a lot of our influences from current pop intertwined with Brit-pop and experimented with vocal layers and harmonies. At the back of our minds, we’re constantly thinking about how these songs will sound live. We wanted to go for that big, expansive stadium filler sound.”

Travelling from country to country, the new EP was recorded on the road, the band setting up
recording equipment and cutting vocals whilst touring. “We’re excited that so much of this EP was
done just the four of us, and a lot of the production was done by Marcus (drums) and Clem (guitar).
Feeling inspired and recording whilst playing shows was a cool way of working – we’d not done that before.”
