Dan Hegarty – The Alternative: For The Record – ‘You Want The Night’ by Sleep Thieves – Sunday, December 2 to Thursday, December 6:
We’re in the year 2014 For The Record this week. ‘You Want The Night’ is album number two from Dublin-based synth pop trio Sleep Thieves. This album saw the band sign with US label Minty Fresh, and undertake extensive touring to promote it. While the album was released on traditional physical format too, the band state that Spotify played a big part in spreading their name, particularly in America. Dan features tracks from the album all this week, and chats with the band on Wednesday’s show.
