VELVET SHAKES are the synth pioneers steering our Winter into good vibes with the hot release of their recent single ‘World’. The four piece group are making boy bands cool again as they carve a space in the electro-pop landscape for their unique brand of sonic manipulation. Made up of Josh Bithell, Scott Hill, Louie Donnelly and Anthony Hickey, VELVET SHAKES’ utilise every inch of their collective musical magic to curate songs rich with infectiously funky vibes. With five singles under their belt, VELVET SHAKES are on a trajectory for a total airwave takeover.
‘World’ is the vibrant new single from the genre-fusing foursome. Built on a soundscape of stunning synth melodies and dynamic guitar counter-melodies, ‘World’ showcases the immense ingenuity that inaugurates VELVET SHAKES as such an exciting act bursting onto the scene this year. With vocals so clear you could cut your teeth, a pounding drum line so electric you won’t notice you’re vibing until it’s too late and a bass line that will make you do that face, ‘World’ is the disco-inspired, deep house hinting, indie insinuating track you don’t want to miss. The group says about the inspiration for ‘World’:
“World is about a sort of conscious awakening and the appreciation of our planetary home that came with that,”
Despite having many gigs cancelled (I mean, who hasn’t) VELVET SHAKES are continuing the build on the immense momentum that has left one of the most exciting acts storming the DIY musical landscape this year. So, whist we aren’t quite able to travel the world just yet, let VELVET SHAKES help you forget about the grey days of lockdown as they lift us into their sensational sonic planet with ‘World’.
