Brighton's brazen young punks return with 'Hell Of A Day' - we can all relate..
Accompanied by a hell of a video, the latest release from Noah and the Loners is a must-listen! Highly relatable real-life lyrics over a hell of a tune from these rising stars – ‘Hell Of A Day‘ is their third single.
Debut single ‘Teenage Tragedy‘ came out a year ago, and second single ‘Protest Anger‘ last February; a hell of a forthcoming album is promised!
Punk teens Noah and the Loners are fronted by 18 year old singer songwriter Noah Lonergan on vocals and guitar, with Amber Welsh on bass, Joseph Boyle on guitar and Noah Riley on drums. Noah and the Loners have something to say and they’re saying it loud. Their powerful songs capture the zeitgeist of Gen Z – from personal tracks on teenage love and Noah’s experience of toxic masculinity as a trans man, to political blasts at racism, corruption and the climate crisis.
The band’s sound is influenced by OG legends X-Ray Spex, The Clash and Buzzcocks, along with the alternative stylings of Idles, Paramore and Frank Carter & the Rattlesnakes. Noah and the Loners are the youngest artists ever to be signed to Marshall Records.
Full of energy, emotion, and with a wicked twist of humour, check out the song and video for ‘Hell Of A Day‘:
Having seen Noah and the Loners at Rebellion Festival in August, then again last month supporting Buzzcocks at the Camden Music Festival, I can reaffirm what an excellent live band they are. With young musicians as talented as this forging ahead in full Punk spirit, it’s undoubtedly sure to say that the future is very bright!

Usually found jumping around down the front at gigs, I also relish taking photos and videos, singing, speaking with fellow music fans, and asking musicians the questions nobody else does. Writing about my favourite bands and connecting with people who love music too keeps me more-or-less sane! I’ve worked for over 25 years at a video production company, mainly filming live music events, therefore I have an additional backstage perspective on the scene.
