“Wonderful music that combines classic soul influences with a distinctly modern production approach…” The Sunday Times
“As heart-warmingly catchy as anything from Stevie Wonder’s purple patch” Uncut
Mamas Gun are set to release their much-anticipated third studio album, ‘Cheap Hotel’ on the 15th Sept, preceded by the irresistible hook-laden lead single ‘Red Cassette’ released on the 17th August.
‘Cheap Hotel’ sees the band back with the ‘dream team’ who produced their debut (Routes to Riches) - Julian Simmons (Ed Sheeran, Guillemots) and founder member Andy Platts. The album is a huge sonic step forward; at the same time arguably more experimental than previous work, yet full of timeless song writing, it is laced with a mixture of modern and retro sounds, pure pop sensibilities and the kind of musical clarity only heard in a band who have truly cemented their bonds.
The first single from the album will be ‘Red Cassette’ (out 18th August); a nostalgic summery tune, echoing the synth pop sounds of Prince and Daft Punk.
‘Cheap Hotel’ contains a range of moods from the mellow Bob Marley influenced track ‘Midas Touch’ through to the lifting melodic sounds of ‘Hello Goodnight’, a nod to ELO.
Mamas Gun are a five-piece band, fronted by the charismatic and striking singer/composer/producer Andy Platts, who blend Motown, soul, funk and rock influences to stunning effect. Having released two critically acclaimed albums, toured with the likes of De La Soul, Raphael Saadiq, and Beverley Knight and played to tens of thousands of fans worldwide.
