“Cherry Red” is an indie summer wave banger and the first song from Axis Neptune’s debut album, selected as BBC Introducing’s track of the week upon release.
Axis Neptune is a project created by Josh Cotterill, a producer from Scarborough, UK. His music is heavily inspired by soul, jazz, indie, and synth pop, creating falsetto-driven songs with live instruments and deep grooves. He learnt to play guitar at the ago of 7, after becoming obsessed with Jimi Hendrix and John Frusciante.
After graduating from university with a degree in history and chosen as BBC Introducing’s Pick of the Week by Jericho Keys in York and North Yorkshire and Axis was then invited to perform live for BBC Introducing while – due to COVID restrictions – stuck on the Chinese island of Hainan. This made him the first artist to perform a live session for BBC Introducing from China. After the release of Reasons, Axis Neptune performed live for Sofar Sounds, BBC Introducing, CGTN, China Radio International, Nugget Record’s Online Music Festival, and in Beijing’s prestigious Dusk till Dawn Club.
