Viola Beach's debut album to be released next month

The late Viola Beach are due to have their debut album released posthumously next month. The band, along with their manager, were tragically killed when their car crashed while on tour in Sweden last year.

A statement from the member's families reads: "We are tremendously proud of everything the boys achieved in such a short space of time. Craig, Jack, Kris, River, and Tom shared a huge passion, talent and dedication to music.

"We believe the best way to celebrate our sons’ lives is to release an album of their songs.

"This is their legacy and we know deep in our hearts that the boys would want the world to listen to the music they poured everything into. This was only the beginning for them and these nine songs were written with every intention to be shared, heard and, most of all, enjoyed.

"We hope that it brings you as much happiness listening to it as we know it did to them making it."

The self-titled full-length 'Viola Beach' will be released on the 29th July via the band's own Fuller Beans Records. Check out the lead single 'Boys That Sing' and the album's full tracklisting below.

1. Swings And Waterslides
