Kids In Glass Houses forthcoming single Give Me What I Want (May 12th) has got off to a flying start! Instantly added to the ‘Upfront’ playlist across the XFM network (daytime spins a-hoy!), the track also received its first spin on G-Cap’s ‘Music Control’ last night!

The smashing accompanying video was quickly playlisted on NME TV, MTV2, Kerrang TV and Scuzz TV (more to follow suit) and is this week the main featured video on the FRONT PAGE of MySpace!!

Kids in Glass Houses debut album Smart Casual, is released May 26th. It’s a heady amalgamation of the pop and alternative rock that soundtracked their formative years! A raw energy fused with a knowing respect and admiration for the hook laden legacies of heavyweight established artists like The Police, Prince, The Cure and Duran Duran.
