Courting return with new single 'Flex'

Following on from the release of their critically-praised debut album 'Guitar Music' last year, Courting have now returned to share a brand new single.

The new track 'Flex' marks their first piece of new material for 2023, and sees them continue their fresh and inventive approach to the swaggering indie-rock sound they are known for.

Speaking about the new offering, frontman Sean Murphy-O’Neill, said,"'Flex' is designed to be a theatrical performance, a short play. Our protagonist is wealthy, successful, and famous… but at what cost? Our protagonist misses their ex (after seeing their glow-up), wears Ricks, chainsmokes, sends thought-out emails about their wellbeing to people they should’ve replied to sooner, and has increased their screen time by 25%. In the thrilling conclusion, our protagonist does donuts in a closed car-park, in a 1967 mustang, with all of their friends. The event is live-streamed on twitch to be rewatched until the end of time.

"'Flex' is as sincere as we can be. Sometimes the lines between real life and fiction get blurred here, but we’re nothing if not committed."
