“Nausea”, from Flair, is a melodic and hypnotic jolt that will stay with you long after the music has faded .

Flair, formed in 2019, and after years of relentless gigging and studio time shaping the bands identity, their vision fully crystallised in 2023 following the release of their debut EP and breakout track ‘Run Away’. Momentum quickly followed, culminating in a shortlist spot at the 2025 Scottish Live Music Awards for ‘Best Live Artist’ and national and international radio play soon followed, also garnering early praise from the likes of Glasgow Times, The Scotsman and Belfast Telegraph. The band have gone on to share the stage with both Pentire and Arkayla and have been awarded slots at renowned festivals such as Belladrum Tartan Heart.

Their music continues to channel the pulse of Glasgow, a city that remains both their creative backbone and driving force. Instead of drifting from their origins, Flair turn their roots into rocket fuel – buckfast in music form. Drenched in reverb and driven by razor-sharp hooks, they blend the melodic sweep of Wunderhorse and The War On Drugs with the bite of Fontaines D.C., carving out a sound that’s unmistakably theirs.

Nausea’ sees the band at their most raw and unflinching, capturing the claustrophobia of spiralling thoughts and the uneasy thrill of losing control. The track opens with a suffocating tension; pulsing basslines, jagged guitars and desperate vocals coming together to create an emotionally punishing earworm, exploring the darker corners of Flair’s sound.

Discussing the track’s lyrical inspirations, vocalist and lyricist Tony Collum says, “Nausea emerged during a few bleak winter studio sessions in Glasgow in late 2025. The song reflects the inner pressures we faced at the time. Nausea channels spiralling thoughts and the emotions behind the pressures of lineup changes, tumultuous relationships and restless ambitions.”

There are no smoke and mirrors, with Flair, they conjure up an honest , powerful and emotionally charged sound that is needed deeply in today’s somewhat mundane musical landscape.

So go find the perfect music listening spot and hold on tight…. Flair brings the energy with “Nausea” and you won’t want to miss it.
