Secret Rivals have some exciting things on the horizon – a slot at Bestival in early September, and the release of their debut album Make Do And Mend on Kittiwake Records on 12 September.

This has got them in a generous mood, and flushed with excitement they’re now offering their debut EP, ‘Start Fires’, totally free, to download or stream online. You can read our review of the EP here, and the three tracks – ‘It Would Be Colder Here Without You’, ‘Slow Learner’ and ‘Prone To Explosions’ are available on SoundCloud.
