Drums.ABOUT
The unapologetically-exuberant SPRXNGBREAK was born in London, grew up in a German basement studio, was crafted in Manchester and invokes feelings of midnight drives in mid-80s California.
The “nostalgic soundtrack to a blissful sunset drive”, SPRXNGBREAK was birthed from a series of sessions between songwriter and multi-instrumentalist Mick Warwick, and Grammy Award-winning producer Nate Cassells. When they bonded over their love of early Madonna B-sides, crisp choppy guitars, and dusty pink photographs, Cassells (who came up with the name SPRXNGBREAK when naming the Hard Drive on his computer) and Warwick, spent a month in a dark basement studio in rural Germany, slept on the floor and ate instant noodles whilst building upon their love of vintage movies and beautiful pop melodies until SPRXNGBREAK was born.
Once it was born, it stayed hidden and somewhat forgotten for five years. Cassells’ career changed direction, Warwick quit writing and moved to Manchester. One summer, whilst driving to his tech support job, Warwick rediscovered the original demo playlist and the ‘BREAK was reborn.
Warwick spent the next year remixing the original demos, recording vocals into his phone, writing melodies in his car, playing guitars in his bathroom, and eventually hooked up with production duo MxM to help him turn SPRXNGBREAK into the shimmering pop extravaganza we hear today.
The release of first single, “Always In Love” marks a return to the writing game for Mick Warwick and a first foray into world for SPRXNGBREAK. With plans for a series of singles, an EP and an album in 2020, one thing is for certain; we can expect great things from the ‘BREAK.

Driving You Home
Driving You HomeOriginal musical work by SPRXNGBREAK. Music and lyrics by Mick Warwick. Production by Mick Warwick. Additional production and live instruments by Gareth Gwyn. Mixed by Gareth Gwyn. @SPRXNGBREAK / @MWSXB --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyrics Take, my heart, Because it’s only ever been you from the start. And I don’t care, how far, Because this love can reach wherever you are. The summers done, we can see that it’s running out, You sit and stare and I can feel it wearing me down. And then you say that we’re done and you’re leaving town. I can’t bear to go without. I know you’re falling apart in my hands but, Girl don’t say you’re gone. So tell me when you’re coming back baby, Cos nothing’s feeling quite right while I’m living alone, When you were here we were living so lazy, You put your feet up on the dash while I’m driving you home. Don’t let go, hold on, So in love, While I’m driving you home. No one knows, just us, summer lovin’ looking back, While I’m driving you home. Break apart, You’re giving up before we know we are, And girl you make, it hard, Who are you when you’re breaking my heart? The summers done, we can see that it’s running out, You sit and stare and I can feel it wearing me down. And then you say that we’re done and you’re leaving town. I can’t bear to go without. I know you’re falling apart in my hands but, Girl don’t say you’re gone. So tell me when you’re coming back baby, Cos nothing’s feeling quite right while I’m living alone, When you were here we were living so lazy, You put your feet up on the dash while I’m driving you home. Don’t let go, hold on, So in love, While I’m driving you home. No one knows, just us, summer lovin’ looking back, While I’m driving you home. I never wanted to let you down. (I never wanted, I never wanted) Cos you’re the one who helped me figure it out. I’m hate the thought of when you’re not around (So give it up, remember everything we let hit the ground) We fell in love, but you’re killing all the hope I had now So tell me when you’re coming back baby, Cos nothing’s feeling quite right while I’m living alone, When you were here we were living so lazy, You put your feet up on the dash while I’m driving you home. So tell me when you’re coming back baby, Cos nothing’s feeling quite right while I’m living alone, When you were here we were living so lazy, You put your feet up on the dash while I’m driving you home. Don’t let go, hold on, So in love, While I’m driving you home. No one knows, just us, summer lovin’ looking back, While I’m driving you.

Love You Better
Love You BetterOriginal musical work by SPRXNGBREAK. Music and lyrics by Mick Warwick. Mikkel Alison. Production by Mick Warwick. Mixed by Mick Warwick at Avenue Studios, Harrow. @SPRXNGBREAK / @MWSXB --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyrics You’re always trouble when I need it I’m running back with all the things you said And I will love you better (better) And I will love you better. And you control it when you read it It’s like you’re always in my head And I will love you better (better) And I will love you better. You’re tired of loving by yourself Sick of searching this life for somebody else. One night. You did enough to keep my heart from running out You get it up before you put it down You did enough to show me where the good is now And now I’m bathed in light, Knowing that we’ll be alright, My heart goes round and round, Girl, I only need to see you for one night. We fell in love with the ceiling, It’s not the same when I’m by myself. If I could have you for the evening, We could explore all of the things we felt And I will love you better (better) And I will love you better. You’re tired of living by yourself Sick of searching this life for somebody else. One night. You did enough to keep my heart from running out You get it up before you put it down You did enough to show me where the good is now And now I’m bathed in light, Knowing that we’ll be alright, My heart goes round and round, Girl, I only need to see you for one night.

Looking After My HeartOriginal musical work by SPRXNGBREAK, Nate Cassells. Music and lyrics by Mick Warwick, Nate Cassells. Production by Mick Warwick, Nate Cassells @SPRXNGBREAK / @MWSXB --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyrics Is it any wonder that they never last, When I’m in over my head before they even start, Gina always tells me, Gina always tells me that I fall too fast, But I just can’t seem to shake you from my head, I play back and then rewind all of the things you said, But my pulse always reminds me, Yeah my pulse always reminds me that I’m not quite dead. So pick myself up, oh when I see ya, Girl I’m only looking after my heart, Now we’ll never be us, and I’m working on me ahh. I take off and I’m running, and I pick it up when I’m down, I shoulda never let myself feel it, before I know i’m over the doubt, oh. So I scream and shout, Until my heart cries out, I’m looking after my heart right now. My heart just can’t move on because I’m stuck on you, So I’m always looking back when I find something new, And I need someone to hold me, And I need someone to hold me like you used to do. So pick myself up, oh when I see ya, Girl I’m only looking after my heart, Now we’ll never be us, and I’m working on me ahh. I take off and I’m running, and I pick it up when I’m down, I shoulda never let myself feel it, before I know i’m over the doubt, oh. So I scream and shout, Until my heart cries out, I’m looking after my heart right now. I’m looking after my heart right now. I take off and I’m running, and I pick it up when I’m down, I shoulda never let myself feel it, before I know i’m over the doubt, oh. So I scream and shout, Until my heart cries out, I’m looking after my heart right now.

I wanna kiss you ‘til the whole world knows you’re mine. I wanna kiss you in public. I wanna kiss you ‘til the whole world knows you’re mine. You only love it when nobody sees it, Getting closer and you’re squeezing my hand, And my friends are never gonna believe it, But I always wanna be your man.

I wanna kiss you in public. I wanna kiss you ‘til the whole world knows you’re mine. Inspiration only comes when I see you, You’re making me high, And if it makes you blush then I will close your eyes, Girl, don’t you tell me you don’t want them all to know, Why would I ever tell myself to take it slow?

Always In Love

Production by Mick Warwick. Production by MxM. Additional contributions by Sid Batham, Nate Cassells, George Walker, Daiana Dobra. @SPRXNGBREAK / @MWSXB --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Lyrics I wake up in the morning, And there is no one there to hold, I pick it up like your calling, Now I know, oh oh, I should of never let you go, Summer love like I’m all in, And I am nowhere near you now, I just can’t seem to bend and shake all these feelings out, You come when you’re back around, You come when you’re back around. I roll it all back, And when you’re gone, you know it’s tough But I can never stop. You close your heart, locked up and torn apart, Even when you say it’s done, I’m always in love. I can’t do enough, When this lonely life is tough I’m always, always, always, in love yeah. (I'm always in love) (I'm always in love). And now you’re breaking me open, I know your heart is miles from home, I spend all my time just hoping you’re not alone (alone), But I guess I’ll never know (no), I guess I’ll never know. I can’t hold you now (LA sunset love), As the sun goes go down (Just wasn’t enough), Even if we work it out, I’ll still be here, you’ll still be there and we will never be us.
