The Libertines arrived in the late nineties like a raging bull in a tired post-Britpop China shop and introduced the world to a new gang of London bohemians, whose ragged tunes, red military tunics, opiated poetry and ‘live now pay never’ lifestyle came to define the millennial angst of the early noughties. At the heart of the band is the blood bond bromance between the ramshackle Music Hall Jagger/Richards, Peter Doherty and Carl Barat, ably assisted by the rock solid rhythm twins John Hassall and Gary Powell.

Oli Fox and Scott Verrill have experienced a rise that’s nothing short of remarkable.

Their debut album Blue Sky Mentality — written on the road between sold-out world tours and support slots with Benson Boone and Foster the People — captures that spirit perfectly: big, open-hearted pop songs that aim for both the head and the heart.
