New Zealand disco-boogie outfit Flamingo Pier announce their new Beneath The Neon EP out September 1st 2023 on prolific New York-based dance label Razor-N-Tape. The band also hits the road for a global release tour with shows in Bali, UK, New York, Mexico, and New Zealand to celebrate.

Lead-off single ‘How 2 Feel' shows a clubbier side of the band, with a pulsating house rhythm track and layers of angular synth stabs, vocal charts, and a standout trumpet solo from Jack Thirtle. Luke Walker of Flamingo Pier, shares. “We wanted to create something big enough to play to a few thousand people but with a warm and soulful vibe."

Known for parties in East London and their massive homegrown Waiheke Festival, as well as previous releases on UK's tastemaker Soundway Records, the Kiwi collective are set to deliver a trio of new songs that solidify and expand their signature danceable blue-eyed indie-soul sound. ‘Beneath the Neon’ and ‘Remedy’ are more familiar Flamingo Pier territory, upbeat indie disco anthems that boast incendiary vocal hooks, funky guitar work, and crisp production by Luke Walker. Rounding out the EP are remixes by Chicago house legend Glenn Underground, and Razor-N-Tape's co-head JKriv, whose mix features a guest appearance by Afro-boogie royalty Steve Monite.
