COMING SOON: The Mezz are heading to Reading next month

Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

WE LOVE championing new music, and that’s exactly what we’ve got for you this week.

Topping the playlist is The Mezz, a new indie four-piece.

They’re supporting Split The Dealer next month when they perform at Sub89, and what better way to put you in the mood than listening to one of their tracks?

Just head to our Spotify page and tune in.

Our playlist is packed with great music, all with a connection to Reading and Wokingham (that’s the RaW in our Sounds Today name).

To hear this week’s selection, simply head to https://bit.ly/rawsoundstoday and pump up the volume.

There’s also a Facebook page and group chat that bands and music fans can tap into. You can search for RaW Sounds Today and it will come up.

The Mezz – Yesterday You Said Tomorrow

The Mezz are a new indie four-piece band based in Oxfordshire and this is their latest single. It’s a great sing-along melodic indie-rock anthem and well worth a listen.

The band look like they are another talented outfit on the rise and they are currently playing a number of live shows around the country.

They will be supporting Split the Dealer at his Sub 89 Reading show on May 13, so this is another good reason to get along to that and watch out for another new single in May too – https://www.themezz.uk/

Rocket Kings – Rendezvous

We featured this band in the playlist last year and they have been added to the lineup for this year’s Wokingham Festival so that’s a good reason to remind ourselves of their Everyday Adventures album, released last year.

Here’s the opening track from that album by this five-piece Reading-based ukulele pop band whose infectious upbeat catchy sound will be perfect for a summer festival like Wokingham. We’ll look forward to seeing them there – https://www.facebook.com/rocketkings/
