GAFFA TAPE SANDY have been around for almost a decade and now they’re arguably at their best yet. Back stronger than ever, after being cut short by lockdowns and infighting within the band, they’re fully formed and coming to terms with their circumstances in their new offering Hold My Hand, God Damn It. It’s a garage rock record at its core but one that keeps pop and indie constitutions in mind to help pull on the heart strings and give the album some serious moveability. 


After the pandemic, the Brighton-based trio could’ve been one of the pre-existing bands you might’ve written off and become a passing, nostalgic memory. Fortunately, they’ve stayed defiant in their stance and have rebuilt themselves. With that comes a change in creative roles; bassist/co-vocalist Catherine Lindley-Neilson is now contributing to the songwriting process, and her hardcore punk leanings can be heard on the faster and harsher toned tracks like Split and Energy.
