The Goa Express Help You Escape Monotony with “Good Luck Charm“ Single and UK Tour Dates

Burnley’s finest, The Goa Express, offer up a remedy to the grind of daily life with their frenetic new single “Good Luck Charm”.

The band, led by frontman James Douglas Clarke offers a remedy to the claustrophobia of the day-to-day grind with the band telling: “Sometimes, you end up feeling down on your luck and then all a sudden you make the call to get the hell out of somewhere, and, out of nowhere, you meet someone and you end up getting lucky again.”

Growing up in the rural shadow of England’s industrial north, music was a means of escape and a vessel for their friendship. Their shared adolescent experiences (late gigs at The Golden Lion in Todmorden, camping underneath the cliffs at Hebden Bridge) shaped their collective attitudes and behaviours and, ultimately, the sound and spirit of their band.

Post-lockdown, the 5-piece stormed out of the gates with intent. The Goa Express played over a hundred UK/EU gigs in 2022, including stops at Glastonbury, Latitude, and The Great Escape and 2023 looks to be no less quiet as the band hit the road in May for a full UK tour.
