Last night I went to see Me and My Drummer live at Kulturladen, Konstanz. Their show was great, and I loved the new material live more than I initially did when Love Is A Fridge came out earlier this year. (I love the band.)
The true discovery of the evening, however, was the opening act Bayuk. Soulful, haughting vocals combined with guitar, drums, and intricate electronica. The full sound of the duo reminded me not only of Me and My Drummer, but of Get Well Soon, Naked Lunch, and Hozier, in a completely fresh mix. For the time being they’re unknown (and rather difficult to google) but we’ll more from them soon, I’m sure. Pop music for the 21st century, right down the fact that their merch after the show was a uniquely printed card with a download link.
Thoughts?
