The rising Manchester alt pop group have revealed a video for new track Stay Young, taken from upcoming E.P Aphorism.
The quartet have certainly had an exciting year as they continue to raise their profile amongst the media, listeners and the general public everywhere. Their unique take on pop music has earned them plaudits from across the globe, with critics likening them to the ever iconic Depeche Mode and Canadian indie rockers Tegan and Sara, with the distinctive vocal talents of Anna-Louisa Etherington giving them that edge to make them who they are.
Aphorism is an E.P that is set to give Letters To Fiesta a big future in the music scene. With the amount of synthesisers ever increasing within UK pop music, there are bound to be hits and misses along the way. Fortunately for the bright Manchester troupe, this is a hit bigger than any Mike Tyson produced during his boxing career. Etherington uses her vocal chords to maximum efficiency, allowing her to be singing at a baritone level before reaching the kind of highs we can only dream of reaching. This is shown best on opener Tears Apart, where it is merely her voice and gentle synths for fifty seconds before drums make their entrance and the song really kicks in. It will have you immediately hooked, and wanting more.
And more is what you get. Swan Girl is a more up tempo track, the kind to make you prance around the place, with an almost euphoric backdrop of sounds to send you off in a dream like trance. Stay Young features melodic howls that scream Florence Welch out at you. If you get what you deserve as they say, it won’t be long before Letters To Fiesta experience the same kind of success that Florence and her machine have achieved.
