The Academic have announced that January 12th will see the release of their debut album Tales From The Backseat.
Until then, they'll be drip feeding us tracks from the album and they've just dropped Why Can’t We Be Friends.
They've been busy lads having just wrapped up a 25 date USA tour and are now on a European tour with The Kooks.

Why Can’t We Be Friends is a cascading tambourine-y toe-tapper that'll be sure to get stuck in your head.
And you'll be singing it to strangers in no time!
Lost In Music with Louise Duffy, weeknights from 7pm.
