The Strangerz are a self-described shouty, feminist punk band from Doncaster South Yorkshire, but now based in Manchester. The band are definitely leftfield with a distinct groove, and hard-hitting, sometimes nonsensical, lyrics. The band is made up of a pair of twins (singer Martha and her guitarist brother Thomas) and their housemates (drummer Shannon and bassist Will) and they have today released their new single ‘Hit the Ground’.

Loosely Inspired by Martha’s urge to never leave her bed and sleep as close to the floor as possible, ‘Hit The Ground’ is the third release of the quartet. Recorded at Salford University by former student and upcoming producer Lewis Dean, the single was first introduced into the band’s set as an opener after being written in the summer of 2022.
