Hey Sholay performs Shut The Devil At The Backdoor for Best Fit
We struggle to come up with an accurate description of Hey Sholay, so we’re gonna steal one from the excellent Drowned in Sound, who tagged them as “a band of irreconcilable contradictions”.
The Sheffield/Leeds five piece, currently riding high on the release of strong debut ((O)) and fresh from a tour with Fierce Panda-label mates The Crookes, make ambitious music which should (and probably will) project them to greater things in due course. Big choruses dominate but their own unique brand of psych-tinged pop sets them apart from their peers. Best Fit met them earlier this month for a nicely-done session take on ‘Shut The Devil At The Backdoor’.
Hey Sholay play London’s Hoxton Bar & Kitchen on 12 December.
