our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Creature” from Moss Valley ๐ค
their second offering, we loved their previous debut “Beyond“, which was an explosive and fierce introduction to the band – and when we had them perform for us, we were astounded by their stage presence and musical prowess! a must-see band ๐ฅ
this new single continues with their grungey sounds of the debut, yet with a more fast-paced, punky atmosphere – a real powerful guitar line forming the foundation of the track, with massive rhythm from the bass and drums working in perfect unison to provide a driving groove to the tune, leaving plenty of space for lead singer Zara’s vocal to take charge ๐ and with expert lyricism, depicting the story of a being that attempts to go against the grain, told in a well-woven tale ๐
our open mic next Tuesday at the Grafton Arms will be the final one of 2024!

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Marc Todd “Hey, What Do You Want To Say?” ๐
this is his eighth release, after a string of fantastic singles over 2024, and performing across the North West regularly, including shows at HMV Manchester and Liverpool, he’s making his mark on the North West scene ๐ฌ
this new single sounds lovely, a real late 90’s indie feel to it, a proper Manchester element behind it yet feeling fresh and new – it’s got a proper singalong chorus that is sure to get any listener hooked. the track has a real groove behind it, with drums and bass providing a lovely foundation and setting for the acoustic guitar to provide the drive of the track, and plenty of space for Marc’s vocal to take charge above and command the listener’s attention! it’s well worth a listen ๐ง
