Emerging Alt-Swamp Blues Rock Band The Mons Whaler Release Debut EP 'Won’t Let You Go'

29 September 2023 - 0 Comments

Exciting new Taranaki talents The Mons Whaler drop their debut EP Won’t Let You Go and accompanying title track video today.

STREAM WON’T LET YOU GO HERE

For this EP, founding members Hemi Coates (vocals/guitar), Andre Peri (percussion/backing vocals), and Phil Hoskin (bass guitar/backing vocals) engaged the immensely talented Courtnay Low (keys/lead guitar/backing vocals) to join them in the studio and for live performances.

Bringing their swampy alt-blues fuzz tones, tight rhythm section, and velvet vocals together, The Mons Whaler deliver 4 tracks of their signature neo-vintage sound in all its glory, to warm the ears and hearts of music lovers with this compact preview of the new full-length album set for release later this year.

Gorgeous title track Won’t Let You Go is a dreamy fusion of coolly controlled blues, rock and soul, propelled by a leisurely groove enhanced by soulful keys and harmonious silky-smooth backing vocals. The end result is a song that emanates a spellbinding vibe, perfectly augmenting Coates’ suave, earthy vocal, allowing it space to shine.

Complementing the music, Won’t Let You Go is accompanied by a beautifully shot performance video, filmed and edited by local film and video creatives Fused and Soel Creative , it’s warm, muted tones perfectly encapsulating the delicate mood of the song.

As they embark on their musical journey, The Mons Whaler is fast building a solid fan base as they continue to captivate audiences with their collection of accomplished tunes and electrifying live performances. Next up, they are ready to celebrate this first drop of excellence with a sold out Won’t Let You Go EP release party on Friday 13th October.

Undoubtedly one to watch, The Mons Whaler is a band with their own unique blend of talent, passion, and creativity, poised to leave an indelible mark on the music industry and inspire generations to come. Keep your eyes peeled and ear to the ground, and look out for the full album out this November.
