Just The Crust 20/06/22: Nat Dempsey & the Near Strangers 🤘

20th Jun 202220th Jun 2022artist, bread, just the crust, local scene, new music, videoLeave a Comment

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Nat Dempsey & The Near Strangers “Run and Hide”!

we’ve known Nat for a long time now, and he’s got such a fantastic discography to his name – so many great singles that sound absolutely fantastic. a proper talent here in Manchester and one to definitely watch out for, especially for his live sets!

opening with a real groove to the track, the drums and bass in perfect sync with one another – it starts with Nat on an almost deadpan vocal, suddenly opening up to a more melodic vocal line and building and building with each instrument until the chorus which is just explosive.

his lyricism has only got better and better with each track, this song takes a real inspection upon the state of the world and the influence that different figures have and how they all seem to contradict each other, yet don’t… we love seeing the stories behind songs and their meanings and there’s so much to unpack in this one, we’ll let you figure it all out for yourself though

you can find the track in full over on Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/track/3tDE0L2aKbZmCJ2IfhcEiP… and on all streaming sites! give it a listen and check out his previous releases as well.

Just The Crust 13/06/22: Blue Orchid Reaction – Personal Revolution ☀️

13th Jun 202214th Jun 2022artist, bread, just the crust, local scene, new music, videoLeave a Comment

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from Blue Orchid Reaction “Personal Revolution”!

we’re a big fan of these lads and they’ve been putting out continuously fantastic release after release over the past few years and this is yet another standout single from them! we even may have a lineup that they’re playing but not too much about that yet

this new single sounds brilliant, they’ve stayed true to their signature sound that we’re used to – really loving the opening bassline and groove to the track, pushes it along so well and the guitar tones are super luscious. as it opens up towards the chorus the build is great, and it erupts with such intensity into the hook, brilliant to hear from these guys!

if you like what you hear you can find the single on all streaming sites, or check out the full music video on YouTube at https://youtu.be/cM4ZSMTfTbY well worth a watch, these guys are great!
