Single Review - Play It Loud - Raintown



Raintown are back!  They’ve not had anything out for a while, and their latest song is about – not going out for a while!  Is it Claire having a dig at Paul? Not enough nights out?

Opening with a short guitar riff, a split second of silence – and in comes Claire’s vocal. Pacey, bouncy – listening to the song (produced in Nashville) is very much like being at a Raintown gig – they fill the stage and the venue with their energy.

Although the song is about getting dressed up and going out, it feels like it can equally apply to the other side of the stage – anyone in the entertainment industry knows that feeling when you haven’t gigged for a while and you want to burst out and play to the waiting crowd

Released today, 11 July, this song is perfect for that getting ready/pre drinking stage of a night out, and it’s the one where you will lean over and notch up the volume when it comes on.  That catchy chorus needs to be sung, and sung at the top of your lungs


Co-written with bass player Scott McPherson, Play It Loud is what Raintown are all about – fun, noisy and just so lively! Many songs have a message or a deeper meaning – this one is simple – lets go out and have some fun!  The repeated line "Play that song all night" long sums up the essence of this great new track from a real party band

Play It Loud, the new single from Raintown is available now on all platforms

Find Raintown on Facebookonline and on a rare night out…

Turn it up loud, put on your favourite top and lets hit the town.  Anyone offering to babysit?
