Leeds' premier pop punk act, THE HEADSTART, have announced their brand new single, 'FEELS LIKE HOME' will be released on 12th March 2012. The single, produced by John Mitchell (You Me At Six, Enter Shikari, The Blackout) comes as the bands debut release, ahead of this summer's debut album.
 
THE HEADSTART play songs you can dance to, songs you can sing along to and, best of all, songs which make you ... SMILE! Remember that feeling when you first discovered Blink 182, New Found Glory or Simple Plan? You simply cannot listen to The Headstart's brand of summery pop punk without tapping your foot and the track will be stuck in your head for days.

You may have caught the band on tour with Framing Hanley and My Passion throughout Summer 2011, or at the year's HEVY FEST and the live stage is certainly where the band shine. The band are to tour the single across the UK in February.
