The Cheap Thrills are a garage rock band who very proudly come from Liverpool (England). The group consists of primary school friends Lewis Pike, Terry Eaves, Callum Fitzpatrick and Anton Eager, who specialize in songs with catchy hooks and melodies, resulting in jumpy bass lines, spacey guitars, and synths.

About their new single, lead singer Lewis says: ”Smile When You Sleep lists our problems with sleep in various different ways but I think it highlights the beauty of sleep too. It also questions how you feel sleeping with someone else as opposed to sleeping alone. It’s always about progression with songs for us. We want people to connect to these tunes and sing them back to us.”

This week, Smile When You Sleep by The Cheap Thrills features prominently on the Carte Blanche Music blog as the new Wildcard!
