The Maginot Band Single ‘Sombre Fayre’ Out Now!
The Maginot Band release their brand new single, Sombre Fayre, today via When You Awake Records.
Arriving hot on the heels of their well received Christmas single, Veiled Clock, the Scots continue to demonstrate their ability to write contemporary yet challenging pop tunes, with a nod to classic genres of yesteryear the like of which The Band and The Beach Boys would be proud of.
You can view the video for Sombre Fayre via the band's YouTube channel.
Sombre Fayre is also available to stream from the ABoF Soundcloud page.
There is a real earthy feel to the music The Maginot Band write and continue to explore. Sombre Fayre has moments of whimsical reflection and poignancy pouring out of the lyric content; while the music fluctuates in pace and mood, building towards a raucous conclusion at odds with the more melancholic nature of the track.
The Maginot Band, consisting of Jordan Shearer (vocals), Calvin Wilson (bass, vocals), Kevin Swanson (guitar, Vocals), Jamie Swanson (guitar), Liam Whittles (organ, piano) and Darren Coghill (drums) have made great strides since the release of their debut EP last year. The band have picked up support from the likes of God Is In The TV, BBC Introducing in Scotland,Largehearted Boy and The Vinyl District as well as featuring in Jim Gellatly's column in The Scottish Sun.
With the release of Sombre Fayre this month and a live set at Madhatters in Inverness on February 9th, The Maginot Band aim to continue to make strides into the hearts and homes of music lovers in the UK.
Sombre Fayre can be purchased on the The Maginot Band bandcamp page with no fixed cost set.
