Just The Crust 27/02/23: Nat Dempsey & The Near Strangers – Playground ☀️

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from one of our favourites Nat Dempsey & The Near StrangersPlayground“! 💥

we’re massive fans of these guys, having released their first major single “Run & Hide” last year to critical acclaim and catching them live throughout the past few months, they’ve got some real belters under their belts, an incredible live stage presence coupled with Nat’s prolific songwriting style just goes to prove that they’re easily ones to watch here in Manchester. 🤘

this new tune only shows off their talent and prowess, the song starts out with a gorgeous guitar progression balanced by Nat’s delicate and smooth vocal, telling his story so effortlessly as the band behind him create a lovely backdrop for the song. you can really hear the chemistry of the band in this song, how well they all gel together throughout and work together to create a fantastic listen and another boss release from themselves. 👊 plus, absolutely quality songwriting here from Nat and the guitar solo is so effortlessly cool!

you can find the track on all streaming sites, including Spotify over at https://open.spotify.com/artist/6arKZIy9oHFudmndpOWjdF – well worth a listen!
