Snayx kick off new era with melancholic summer anthem ‘Nice Day 4 It’
Brighton alt-punk trio Snayx have released a new single, "Nice Day 4 It," marking the start of a new chapter for the band as their debut release on the Nettwerk Music Group label. The band describe it as "a summer song, but lost in its own melancholy," pairing their characteristically abrasive punk riffs with a more melodic, festival-ready chorus while exploring themes of burnout and surrendering to chaos.
The track follows last year's bass-heavy single "Strut" and arrives as the band works on their long-awaited debut album, with details yet to be confirmed. Snayx, comprising Charlie Herridge, Ollie Horner and Lainey Loops, were named among NME's 100 essential emerging artists for 2025 and have earned praise for their live shows. They are set to play Beautiful Days Festival on 23 August and Lindisfarne Festival on 3 September, before supporting Yonaka on a UK and Ireland tour from 29 September, plus headline dates in London and Brighton in October.
In short
- Snayx release new single "Nice Day 4 It" via Nettwerk Music Group
- Track blends punk riffs with a melodic, melancholic summer sound
- Band tour with Yonaka and play headline shows this autumn
