Indie Rock from SALT

Edinburgh-based alternative post-punk pop band SALT are fiercely independent, recording and producing all their music themselves. The Scottish rockers refuse to be boxed in and labelled by one sound, fluidly shifting between any genre they please, leaving no style untouched.

With their live shows, they bring the energy in their recorded music to audiences having played their city’s prestigious Fresh Produce event as well as supporting Rose McDowall of Strawberry Switchblade on her recent tour. At the core of their sound, grungey guitars, punching bass and driving percussion work collide to make the backdrop for their melody-led music to fly.

They recently released their new single “Tumbleweed”, showcasing their gritty rock style wrapped up in catchy punk pop writing. The track is lifted from their new album, Fairytale on Fire, which was released via HX Records and only available on vinyl.

A tongue-in-cheek look at something that’s meant to be fulfilling but is in reality lacking in substance, they offer a rhythmic rock jam. With “Tumbleweed” they pen a song to tackle the mundanity of life following a hedonistic lifestyle cast to nothing but memory.
