Westside Cowboy — The Wahs
Played: 2026-01-22 (new release)
Taken from Westside Cowboy's latest EP, 'The Wahs' bursts with frenetic slacker-rock, letting moments of raw honesty shine through. Their energy and excitement radiate across this rough-and-ragged two-and-a-half-minute track, making it clear the band had a blast recording it.

Westside Cowboy are a Manchester, England band formed 2023 (Jimmy Bradbury – vocals/guitar, Reuben Haycocks – vocals, Aoife Anson O'Connell – bass/vocals, Paddy Murphy). "Kick Stones (The Boys)" (3:56) is the lead single from their debut album It Goes On, announced 21 May 2026 and scheduled for 21 August 2026 on Island Records. The single was announced alongside the album on 21 May 2026, with first airplay via BBC 6 Music previews. The band say the recording was inspired by a live version of The Velvet Underground's "What Goes On"; bassist/vocalist Aoife Anson O'Connell said they initially feared it sounded "stadium rock." The band are NME 100 alumni with previous EPs This Better Be Great and So Much Country 'Till We Get There.
