Reading “Pop Smack” band Mellor have released their new single ‘Francis’.Since emerging on the scene in 2011 the quartet produced numerous self released EP’s and singles, all of which have been well received by blogs, radio and followers all over the UK and overseas. They’ve shared stages with the likes of The Kooks, Frankie & The Heartstrings, Carl Barat & The Jackals and The Milk, as well as touring up and down the UK tearing up venues with their high energy, loud, and sweaty performances. Band members Gary Kingham (Guitar/Vocals), Sam Igoe (Drums), Josh Woodward (Bass) and Evert Outen (Keys) impressed us with their track ‘Win Me Over’ earlier this year and we made it Our Worth A Listen Track.
Their new single ‘Francis’ announces its arrival with the shrill of distorted guitars, followed by a blast into their bright indie bluster. Mellor fleshes out their cool smooth groove with sensual elastic bass and light steamy guitar that gives the track a seductive spice. Punchy drums and animated suave on vocals gives a fluidity and sleek quality. Gritty darkened undertones adds an edge and rawness to the silken melody of the track. Oozing swagger with hidden shadowy frustration teamed with sizzling guitar and whippy malleable rhythm ‘Francis ‘is a step forward in Mellor’s sound and proves to be a rousing showcase of their talent.
