Don Broco drop new single Uber about "being angry that racists seem to be growing in confidence"

Don Broco send out an anti-discrimination and anti-hate message on new single Uber.

Ahead of this weekend's Slam Dunk headline sets, Don Broco have shared a powerful new single, Uber.

Inspired by some particularly grim taxi experiences, the band explain of their latest Amazing Things track: “This was the first song we started writing for the album a few years ago touring the States.
