Coach Party
“Do It For Love”
Chess Club 

From Isle of Wight
For fans of Wet Leg, The Mysterines

Coach Party are back with their thunderous new single “Do It For Love”. Serving as the album opener for their forthcoming sophomore LP Caramel – out September 26, 2025 via Chess Club Records – “Do It For Love” is a force of nature. A love child of riot grrrl, indie pop, and arena-ready rock, the track is as soaring as it is confrontational, tackling the undeniable struggle that modern artists often endure. '"Do It For Love’ is a song about the realities of being a working-class band—the endless grind, the expectations to give everything while being offered so little in return,” says Coach Party’s frontwoman Jess Eastwood. “It’s a track that speaks to the passion that keeps artists moving forward despite the weight of it all: doing it for love, even when the cost is high."
