Just The Crust 04/03/24: Valentyne – Under The Skin 🗡️

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from ValentyneUnder The Skin“! 👊

we’ve been huge fans of them for a while now, having covered some of their previous releases and had them on gigs under tehir previous moniker, however they’re back with a brand new rebrand and an incredible track! 🎶

Under The Skin” continues with the melodic, darker tones of their debut single “Delora” – with a gorgeous moody backdrop, luscious guitar melodies weaving their way through the track, and with a grooving, tight rhythm laying the foundation for it all, it’s a really well-crafted tune. there’s plenty of space for Charlotte’s vocal capabilities to shine here, soaring above the darker aspects of the track, creating a lovely contrast and with such a delicate touch – we’re sure that they’ll go far and are definitely ones to watch! 🌙

you can find the full tune on all streaming platforms, including Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/artist/0iNUwoLgtaP8dOZp7ipx96 – it’s well worth checking out! ✨

Just The Crust 26/02/24: Cottons – Laguna 🥪

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from CottonsLaguna“, out this coming Friday 1st March! 🙌

we’ve covered Cottons a bunch before, and we love their indie-pop-esque styling, with so much inspiration put into their music. they performed for us back before the pandemic and have been going from strength to strength ever since! ☀️

their new single “Laguna” comes out this Friday, and it sounds fantastic – with such a luscious groove behind it, the rhythm working in perfect unison to create such a great sound. it gives such space for the vocal to take control over the track, making sure the listener hangs onto every word, a real lovely lyrical ability present in the track as well, almost like a conversation with a more deadpan and relaxed delivery. the guitar tone is gorgeous, being super dreamy and creating a great soundscape behind the track for it to open up so well in the chorus with a massive sound, and the synth-pop elements work so well with the rest of the track – a fantastic tune! 🎶

you can find their music on all streaming services, including Spotify at https://open.spotify.com/artist/4RAFwMUN6w4OdxCtjr2BHT – well worth listening to all their tunes! 👊

Just The Crust 19/02/24: Getner – White Walls 💥

our feature for today’s Just The Crust is the brand new single from GetnerWhite Walls“! 🎶

having been a strong presence on the Manchester scene for a while now, with shows at Manchester Academy, Rose & Monkey and more – they’ve established themselves as a force to be reckoned with, and their debut single only proves this even further. 👊

with high-octane, energetic ferocity throughout the whole track, and lead singer Quentin commanding the space with his powerful yet dynamic, intimate at times, vocals – lending the listener to hang onto his every word. there’s a real influence of blues in their music, but matched with no-nonsense rock and roll, they’ve truly created something that is unique yet so familiar and enticing to anyone who listens to their music. well worth a listen! 🎧
