Dublin post-punk sensation SPRINTS, consisting of Karla Chubb (vocals/guitar), guitarist Colm O'Reilly, drummer Jack Callan and bassist Sam McCann, traveled to France's Loire Valley in 2023 to record the album in twelve days with Daniel Fox from the Gilla Band. The result is a devastatingly powerful album with a message for more self-acceptance.
With "Letter To Self" SPRINTS take their own path to satisfaction with passion and perseverance and use the pain to grow. Inspired by Savages, their sound matured into an energetic and rough garage punk that combines influences from the early Pixies, Bauhaus, Siouxsie Sioux, IDLES and LCD Soundsystem.
Singer, guitarist and lead songwriter Karla Chubb confronts her inner conflict and uses her platform to address inequality and issues close to her heart, such as the campaign for "Repeal The 8th" and women's ongoing fight for physical freedom Autonomy, struggles with self-acceptance, identity, mental health issues, sexuality and Catholic guilt. SPRINT's debut album "Letter To Self" will be released on January 5th, 2024 via City Slang. After a fantastic performance at the Reperbahn Festival 2023, the band will play extensive tours in 2024 and will also stop in Germany.
