PUNK ROCK FACTORY To Pump Out Musical Theater Cover Album ‘It’s Just A Stage We’re Going Through’
The 4-piece call South Wales home, while also having their very own recording studio suitably named ‘The Sausage Factory’, most of their discography consists of musical number turned pop-punk ballads. Since their debut self-release in 2019, PUNK ROCK FACTORY has gained fans fast from 5.1 million likes on TikTok and over 11 million views on Youtube.
First vibes I got from PRF is Bowling For Soup meets Reel Big Fish, I was definitely not expecting punk rock musical covers but oh boy, was I pleasantly surprised.
“When we heard ‘You’ll Be Back’ from Hamilton, we absolutely knew it had to go on the album. It’s equal parts sinister and endearing and already a sing-along anthem, begging to be a rock hit!
We worked with Sitcom Soldiers for this music video, and shot in their studio in Bolton. It’s the first time we brought in a new team, and didn’t create the video ourselves DIY. We also had great fun dressing up in regal style outfits too. Also, you’ll notice we’re lacking a bass player in the video... Benj’s first child was actually born two days before the shoot so he had to miss out on this one!”
