Catchy is an understatement. These UK boys invaded the van with a quickness and left their mark with their music running through our crews’ brains. The jam van is run by a group of grown boys (err, men?), but that didn’t prevent them from singing Rixton songs non-stop on our trip to SXSW. There’s just something undeniably enjoyable about the fun that underlies these tracks. Sure it’s pop music, and maybe that’s not our normal thing, but we’re not a normal thing, so we don’t discriminate.
Spud especially took a liking to these gents. I don’t think I’ve ever heard him scream so loud after a performance. Who knew he was such a fan of harmonies. So to end this with a quote from Cuz himself, “these boys can blow!” Which in Spud-speak means sing, and damn if that ain’t the truth.
