The Xcerts share new track ‘Ready To Call’
The song features on forthcoming EP, ‘Wildheart Dreaming’.
The Xcerts have shared another new track, ‘Ready To Call’.
The song - like ‘You Mean Everything’, for which a video was recently shared - features on the trio’s forthcoming EP, ‘Wildheart Dreaming’, released on 22nd March./
The group have also recently been confirmed as support for Busted (yes THAT Busted) on their upcoming tour.
“Ready To Call was inspired by a phone call I received late one night a few years ago,” explains frontman Murray Macleod. “The events that took place after said phone call were legitimately movie like and to this day the memory feels wildly surreal. I tried to make sense of it all by writing a song about it, whether or not i found any answers or any sense of closure is still up for debate but we love this song and it features one of my favourite choruses we’ve ever written.”
