Just The Crust 09/06/25: GETNER – Natives πŸ‘Š

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single “Natives” from GETNER! πŸ™Œ

a familiar face on the Manchester scene, GETNER seriously made their mark already, with a bunch of incredible tunes under their belt, a fantastic live performance that’s sure to get everyone fired up, and having done a bunch of sold-out headlines, they’re an essential band to get to know here in the North West πŸ’₯

this new tune “Natives” sounds incredible, opening up with a delicate soundscape, drawing the listener in to listen, and it opens up almost immediately into an energetic, riff-infused atmosphere that’s got a proper groove behind it. Quentin’s vocal takes centre stage and addresses the listener, ensuring their attention – and his lyricism is direct and poetic, really painting a picture with the songwriting. the track flows so effortlessly, there’s a proper dynamic behind it and it goes through so many different melodies and grooves, yet maintains a real connection between them, proving the band’s musical ability and ensuring the attention of anyone who listens to it πŸ‘Š

you can find the track on all streaming platforms, including on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/track/421U8kHHrvhHyCdM1ZJr5B – well worth checking out 🎧
