It's ten years since our debut album Let Desire Guide Your Hand came out on (we think) March 31st 2014. To mark the occasion, here's a little souvenir single of the 14th and 15th songs we recorded in the sessions for the album, but didn't make the cut.

These two songs were completely finished, mixed and mastered before we decided they didn't quite fit, and set them aside for B-sides of a single we never quite got around to releasing.

Is There Gonna Be Dancing ended up on a compilation, but we think this is the first time that this recording of Chip Pan Glam has been heard anywhere. We still love these wayward little buggers and have fond memories of playing them back in the day. Now's their time to be heard.

The Understudies came together in 2008. After debut album 'Let Desire Guide Your Hand' came out in 2014, second album 'If Destroyed True' was released in 2019.

"Fragile and robust in equal measures in the grand tradition of British guitar bands like The Smiths they stand out as unique in London's indiepop music scene."
