Along the way they’ve racked up two ‘Tune of the Month’ awards in Mixmag, topped digital charts, and helped headline the BBC 6 Music festival in their native Bristol last year. In 2015 they were snapped up by Jalapeno Records, and dropped their debut album, As We Do Our Thing, a year later. The LP took in all their funk, soul, disco, hip-hop and breakbeat influences, and featured guest vocals from HypeMan Sage, BluRum13 and Ugly Duckling’s Andy Cooper, who mesmerized in lead single/video, Rock Rock.
The Allergies’ second album, Push On, is set for release in the summer of 2017.

Rackabeat, Moneyshot, c'mon, take it up now!
Hey, Miss Smith, let em' know
My days were filled with disappointment
You know this world can bring you down, down, down
So I just tried to avoid it
See, I found myself a real love
c commitment that will span eternity
With someone who only wants to build me up
Because he knows what I can be
cnd I've been given so much more than I deserve
The sun is shining on me every day
cnd it feels so good
That I close my eyes
cnd I raise my hand up
'Cause I know you're mine
cnd I just can't believe it
Feels so good to me, it feels so good to me
C'mon, feels good, get it get it, Miss Smith
You're an endless stream of living water
c mighty, mighty rock that won't be moved
cnd there's no height, no depth, ain't nothing in this whole world
That will come between me and you
cnd all ever want to do is celebrate
The sun is shining on me everyday
cnd it feels so good
That I close my eyes
cnd I raise my hand up
'Cause I know you're mine
cnd I just can't believe it
Feels so good to me, it feels so good to me

Feels so good

It feels so good
Feels so good
Feels so good to me, it feels so good to me
