UK headline tour confirmed for Feb\/March <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Primed to grab 2025 by the scruff of the neck and give it a damn good shaking, high-octane boogie woogie punk rock \u2018n rollers Split Dogs are set to embark on their first UK headline tour as they approach the release of their \u2018Here To Destroy\u2019 album, due for release on February 28th via Venn Records.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, Split Dogs offer up another cut with their new single \u2018Lafayette\u2019 which is, says guitarist Mil Martinez \u201ca love letter to our families and the influence they\u2019ve had on our love for music.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a glance it tells the story of (singer) Harry\u2019s mother growing up in Wolverhampton during the height of the 1970s\/80s northern soul scene and the characters she encountered. It also tips a hat to my older brother that passed away in 2023, he played a major role in my song writing growing up.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The video was shot by drummer Chris Hugall who admits that on the actual day of filming they had no real plan as all of their other ideas had fallen through, but they worked on the fly and the end result compliments the song perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt takes you on a journey through the cobbled streets and back bars of the Black Country, Harry\u2019s hometown Wolverhampton,\u201d explains Mil. \u201cFrom Chewing gum-stained carpets and pints of mild to stone faced locals and tar-stained fingertips. If you fancy a dance? Come out to the club and feel alive!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
