Brook Fox – Together
If you like your tempo up, your energy high and you fun all around, this is the song to accompany you on your journey. Equal parts Two Door Cinema Club and Bloc Party, Together is a high-octane homage to the guitar-led euphoria of the late 2000s and early 2010s.
Brook Fox’s new single is the Carte Blanche Music Wildcard. It will be prominently displayed at the top of the blog for an entire week.

Tell Me is the new Carte Blanche Music Wildcard, which means it’ll be prominently displayed at the top of the blog for an entire week.
