here’s a lil teaser of the first single from Anyone’s Ghost “The Secret History” live from The Peer Hat in April 
the first headline gig as a band, it was sensational – big love to Latex Sounds for hosting us, and what a night with so many people down to support! 
such a great way to celebrate the new single.
you can find the full video over on YouTube at https://youtu.be/sdSzzt_r5RE – a huge thank you to Harry King for filming the night!
our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Souza “Morning Calling“!
we were blown away by their previous release “Backroads” back in February, only adding to an already strong catalogue of releases under their belt, and this new tune only solidifies the quality in their discography 
opening up with an energetic groove behind the track, there’s a real lovely lo-fi atmosphere to it all – the grungey guitar tones sound lovely, creating a lush backdrop for the vocals to shine through. the rhythm section throughout is super tight, holding the track down while the main vocal glides over, and for the lead guitar to find a space for that little riff to excel in. 
even with the breakdown throughout the second verse, it still keeps up with the energetic feel – excellently executed! the vocal harmonies throughout really gel the track together, and keep it flowing; we imagine this one’ll be a great one live. incredible stuff! plus, guitar solos in abundance on this, and they sound class, showing off the musical quality within the band.
you can find the track in it’s entirety over on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/artist/0c5hCG9ExwjTFG9YjE5cDy – and the music video is out this Friday!
