Fast rising Bristol 3 piece SOEUR release the single and video ‘Don’t’, a brilliant, final track taken from their forthcoming ‘No Show’ EP which is set for release on September 23rd, and available for pre-order – HERE.
Guitarist and vocalist Tina Maynard explains a little bit about the songs meaning – “Don’t’ is about toxic relationships. We all make allowances for certain people, and to a certain extent this is healthy. The song explores the darker side to the attitudes that can develop when you let resentment fester.”
Recorded over 3/4 days across both Silk Mill Studios in Stoke and Seamus Wong Studios in Leicester, ‘No Show’ is filled with smart, pop and soul infused, twisted rock music. Utilising stunning production and the bands duel melodic vocal, SOEUR create a thoroughly modern take on the alternative with influences from Bjork to PJ Harvey, Shellac to Tool, and Skunk Anansie to QOTSA.
‘Don’t’ follows previous single Fight (from the EP of the same name), which saw huge support from the likes of Annie Mac, Huw Stevens and Dan Carter/The Rock Show on Radio 1 (which included a Maida Vale live session), as well as Steve Lamaq on 6Music, Alex Baker at Kerrang! Radio, Upset Magazine, Kerrang!, Clash Magazine and Rock Sound.
As with all previously released singles and EP, ‘No Show’ is again a 100% fully DIY venture from the band, allowing them complete creative freedom over all aspects of their musical output.
