The 1984 Draft have a new split 7" with Chris Broach (Braid, SNST, The Firebird Band) coming on May 10 on Poptek Records/Sweet Cheetah Records, part of a series of releases from Broad.
The new song from The 1984 Draft is called "Holiday Inn," and is streaming at New Noise now.
“I had lost my friend to cancer and wrote this song on the airplane to a work trip immediately after the funeral. When the band got a hold of it, they brought it to life, and I knew this song would be on whatever release was next, and this is what’s next,” vocalist/guitarist Joe Anderl says of the song, adding: “When I heard about Chris’ own recent cancer battle, pairing the songs made a lot of sense. This release means a great deal to me.”
