The Shutes

The A-Z of New Music brings us to S and a band from the Isle of Wight…….The Shutes.

The Shutes play a kind of alternative-surf-style-rock (if there is such a think), clearly heavily influenced by American rock, however, at times, you do get a sense of The Flaming Lips. What they’ve created is an indie rock sound with enough of a psychedelic twist to make them stand-out. Check out ‘The 3 oh 1’ or ‘Noah’s Ark’ which are great tracks, and pretty typical of what you get with The Shutes.

Their forthcoming EP, Echo of Love, released in April, will be well worth a listen.

Overall, a good solid B for The Shutes….
