Today, Two Hours Traffic unveiled the music video for their new single, “On The Spot.”
This track marks the band’s second offering from their upcoming EP, I Never See You Anymore, their first new material in a decade, set for release on May 23, 2025.
“On The Spot” showcases a more mature and reflective side of Two Hours Traffic’s signature indie pop-rock sound.
The band, known for their knack for catchy melodies and heartfelt lyrics, leans into a contemplative vibe here. The song balances shimmering guitars and a steady rhythm section with introspective lyrics that touch on distance and disconnection, capturing the bittersweet essence of time passed and relationships changed.
About the track by Two Hours Traffic:
“On The Spot was one of the first songs we started to work on once we decided that we’d write some new material,” says Corcoran.
“I wanted to go back to basics and write a high-energy song that would have fit into our sets back in the early 2000s.
The acoustic guitar off the top, the driving rhythm section, lots of electric guitar hooks…as the song started to come together, it reminded us of the old days in an exciting way.”
MacDonald adds, “Liam and I routinely exchange demos of songs we are working on, and when I first heard his demo for ‘On The Spot’ it reminded me, in a great way, of something that could have fit on the first Two Hours Traffic (self-titled) album.
Once the full band started playing around with the song and Nick added the main guitar riff, it came together really quickly, which is often the sign of something special.”
