A year to the day since the arrival of their acclaimed 2023 Welsh Music Prize-nominated debut album, Get Real, CVC release B-Real, a new 13-track companion compilation, collecting all the singles and EPs from the last 12 months.
The album includes five brand new recordings, comprising two new originals in ‘Charlotte’ and ‘Skeleton Key’, two incredible cover versions of classic tracks by Wings and Super Furry Animals, a previously unreleased acoustic version of the album’s ‘Good Morning Vietnam’, along with the current double A-sided single tracks, ‘The Remortgage Anthem’ and ‘Lady (Hear Me Tonight)’, which have been taking the roof off their December sold out shows.
‘Charlotte’ picks up thematically where the band’s biggest track to date, ‘Sophie’, left off, but where the latter is a song about how keyboardist Nanial’s girlfriend Sophie can sing, but won’t - the new song is another loving ode, but this one is from lead singer Cesco to his good lady Charlotte.
