Los Angeles based 5 piece, Iglu & Hartly, are giving away a free track 'Jump Out Of Your Car', taken from their debut album '& Then Boom', released on Mercury Records on 29th September.
Tom Petty meets The Pointer Sisters in a neon karaoke bar in Tokyo singing Tina Turner. The music is a sonic milkshake, a genre blending, culture-defying laser show. Synths, raps, explosive hooks, colorful bridges, sailboats, inspiration.
"We're fucking widescreen," says Jarvis Anderson, lead vocalist and producer for Iglu and Hartly. "The album's like that scene in The Wizard Of Oz when the picture flips from black and white into colour."

Iglu & Hartly have spent the last few months holed up in the house they share in Echo Park, Los Angeles, recording the eleven songs that make up their debut album, "& Then Boom". The killer pop hooks that drip from each track, mixed with their signature synths and raps, make a record designed to be the soundtrack of your summer. And autumn. And winter. A single, entitled 'In This City', is out ahead of the album release.
A spectacular gig at this year's South By South West festival in Austin, Texas and a limited edition 7" release in June helped create a flurry of excitement around the band. With a recent sell out UK tour under their collective belts, Iglu & Hartly have now relocated to London to continue their assault on the UK.
Iglu & Hartly are; Jarvis Anderson and Sam Martin (vocals/keyboards), Simon Katz (Guitar), Luis Rosiles (Drummer) and Michael Bucher (bassist).
