Today's feature song is Undercover Martyn, by Irish indie-pop-rock band Two Door Cinema Club. Two Door Cinema Club are from Bangor and Donaghadee in Northern Ireland, and they orginally formed back in 2007. The band consists of members Alex Trimble (vocals, guitar, synth), Kevin Baird (bass guitar and vocals), and Sam Halliday (guitar and drums). Undercover Martyn is the 3rd single to come off of their Tourist History album, and it was released in February of 2010 by by the French music label Kitsuné Music and Co-operative Music. Apparently this song has also since been featured on the the Playstation 3 game Gran Turismo 5. There have also been a few remixes of this song to also check out, so head over to their MySpace page HERE for music and band info. Bleh!
