In addition to all their touring, the launch of Sneaky Sound System's now infamous club night 'Sneaky Sundays' will take place at London's Cargo on 26 October. 'Sneaky Sundays' has gained notoriety in Australia and quickly attracted high-profile guests including Hot Chip, LCD Soundsystem and Tiga and still packs in up to 1,000 people each week. Special guests for their London Cargo launch will be announced soon.
Meanwhile, Sneaky Sound System's new single 'UFO' will be released on 3 November 2008 through 14th Floor Records. A Top 10 hit in their native Australia, 'UFO' will be the follow-up to their debut UK release 'Pictures', which was described by The Sunday Times as "a blast of sugar-rush electro, stealing hearts" and made Jo Whiley's Record of the Week on Radio 1. The single release will include mixes from Van She, Goodwill and Bimbo Jones. 'UFO' has already received several spot-plays on Radio 1, including Pete Tong's 'Essential Selection' and Zane Lowe, who invited the band in for a Maida Vale session for his show.
