[LISTEN] New Desert Blues - Rag & Bone

The Hampshire via London band have revealed a brand new song, ahead of the release of their début album which is due to be announced soon. The track just cements the bands' stance as one of the best bands to be breaking out this year, and after a strong EP - "Devil's Rope" - they're now looking to be one of the biggest acts out there. Judging by this track they're going to be huge any time soon.

Listen to "Rag & Bone" below.

[LISTEN] New Desert Blues - Summer Skin

The South-Coast band are back with a brand new track, "Summer Skin", and yet again it's a track that strikes a chord with us from the off, the wallowing guitar in the breakdowns, the nod towards Americana and sounds a lot like Bands of Horses in parts. This band have been teetering on the edge of breaking out for a good year now, and I can see them pushing out very soon.

"Summer Skin" is a great track to binge to on a lovely rainy day in the UK. Their début album is due to be officially announced very soon.

Sounds of 2014 - #14 - New Desert Blues

Hampshire quintet New Desert Blues have had quite the year and aren't intending on stopping! Having supported Editors on a European tour and releasing some amazing singles over the past year the band now have a début 4-song EP "Devil’s Rope" due on 20th January 2014 through their own label Whiteley Records.

The band spent much of October holed up at West London’s prestigious RAK Studios co-producing with Isabel Seeliger-Morley, piecing together a body of work featuring brooding vocals, ethereal harmonies and soaring guitar work.

Their track "Adam" - Listen below - has a hint of Phyc and Americana hidden within it's gentile structure. The duel vocals throughout the song gives it the feel of an anthem, and not just that, an anthem written by the big bands such as U2, Editors and The Black Keys. They've really tapped into something quite amazing here.

You all need to hurry up and listen to this song, jump on the bandwagon before they get too big! With what they've already done so far without releasing an EP they've done tremendously well, keep a very close eye on this five-some!

// Upcoming Live Shows \\
January 22nd - St Pancras Old Church London, UK

Track of the week... New Desert Blues - Adam

Now it's not like me to listen to a track on the first attempt by a band I barely know and love it, but that's what happened here. But after being sent this track only a few hours ago by a trusted friend I am safe to say now that this track has got my week up and running!

It really reminds me of the first album Editors, and after doing a bit of research on them it seems like others find the same. This track "Adam" has a hint of Phyc and Americana hidden within it's gentile structure. The duel vocals throughout the song gives it the feel of an anthem, and not just that, an anthem written by the big bands such as U2, Editors and The Black Keys. They've really tapped into something quite amazing here. You all need to hurry up and listen to this song, jump on the bandwagon before they get too big!

New Desert Blues, we salute you!
