Rising Scottish indie band Dead Pony, comprised of Anna Shields (vocals), Blair Crichton (guitar, programming), Liam Adams (bass), and Euan Lyons (drums), are gearing up for the release of their highly anticipated debut album, IGNORE THIS, set to drop on April 5th, 2024, via LAB/Seeker Records.

Ahead of the album’s release, the band has also unveiled their live favorite, “RAINBOWS,” a powerful song about self-acceptance and embracing individuality.

Concerning the song Shields reveals: “‘RAINBOWS’ is a song about loving yourself. Growing up as a teenager, I always felt like a bit of an outcast and I never felt comfortable in my own skin. It’s only as I’ve gotten older, I’ve realised that being true to yourself is the most beautiful thing that you can be and that you don’t need to fit the mould to be worthy of loving who you are. This song is for 13-year-old Anna and all of the other people out there who haven’t yet realised that their differences are beautiful. Just remember, no matter how bleak things may seem, Rainbows always come and things always get better.”
