[TuneOTD] Everybody Looks Famous - SPOTLIGHTS

Artist: Everybody Looks Famous
Genre: Powerpop/Rock
Location: Birmingham, Midlands, UK
Label Type: Major
Record Label: Go Faster Music Management



Today’s tune is from a young band we’ve featured before here on Twitter Tunez, called Everybody Looks Famous. Their new single ‘Spotlights’ follows the trend set by earlier tracks in that it again offers something a little different, building on from their previous efforts.

The song is instigated by a fine display of synths which continue throughout supporting the infectious and penetrative drums and driving guitars. The angelic vocals of Lexi Pretorius are a breath of fresh air and are not to dissimilar in fashion to one Ellie Goulding! As far as the chorus goes, these vocals very much hold their own over the wave of guitars, bass and hammered cymbals. The track also includes a short, steady guitar riff in the build-up to the coda and subsequent crescendo.

All in all, a top-notch effort in which the beat provided by the synths stand-out as a successful piece of innovation, culminating in possibly the bands greatest track to date. 

I'll let the band introduce the song themselves:
