“Wake up Wake up” is a fun pub song for when you lose a friend on a night out with a little sporty feel, like yelling at the TV or chanting drunkenly at the pub, as described by the band member Lily.
The band is independent and formed some time ago, they have released their single “Wake Up Wake Up,” as an anthem for anyone who wants to get out and start their night on the right foot in a funny way.
You won’t be able to take your eyes off the tune once you hear the hard-hitting guitar riff and the catchy chorus reminding you of a cartoon scene.
