Manchester-based band Westside Cowboy has released their debut full-length album, ‘It Goes On’. Produced by Loren Humphrey, the eleven-track record features a self-described genre called ‘Britainicana’, which blends Americana and folk with British post-punk and alternative rock.

The band, consisting of members James Bradbury, Paddy Murphy, Reuben Haycock, and Aoife Anson O’Connell, aims for a raw and energetic sound. The album follows successful singles such as ‘Kick Stones (The Boys)’ and ‘Pin Up Boys’, with the opening track specifically modeled after the raucous live energy of The Velvet Underground. The release coincides with a performance at the Green Man festival.
