For those unfamiliar with The Rising, they are a five piece country band from Belfast, Northern Ireland. They are also a bunch of teases as they release their fantastic new single 'Last First Love' with no set release date for their upcoming sophomore album.'Last First Love' certainly whets the appetite for the new record. The upbeat track is catchy and encapsulates the joyful feeling of falling in love. In a genre that is famed for its tales of heartbreak, it's always nice to hear a more optimistic outlook on love.
This immensely fun track is also one of the first, of hopefully very many to come, tracks with new lead singer Chantelle McAteer and her vocals shine on this single. It's an exciting time for the band and also an exciting time for the UK country scene. I have a feeling that their new album, whenever that will come, will win over a whole lot of new fans.
