New Carnival smoosh strutting bass and glimmering guitars on new jam "Sweet Caroline"

Bristol threesome New Carnival have lifted the lid on funktacular new track "Sweet Caroline".

It's led by a ballsy, slithering attention-hogging bassline and fluttering funk guitars - this song demands full-body boogieing. New Carnival blur '80s disco grooves, indie-pop smoothness, and slinky shadows on "Sweet Caroline", and the result is a modern-day strut soundtrack - if Saturday Night Fever ever gets remade, this needs to be involved.

The new single is out 18 March via Spinnup.

Check out "Sweet Caroline" below. New Carnival's upcoming shows are after.

April

22 - Koko, London
27 - The Louisiana, Bristol
27-29 May - Dot To Dot Festival (Nottingham, Bristol, and Manchester)
