Hailing from Essex but now based in Brighton, Voodoo And The Crypts are a four-piece who are making an impressive name for themselves on the South Coast scene.

Their recent debut single, 'Feeling' showcases undeniably tropical grooves and shimmering guitar hooks. Sharing the same summer-ready swagger that The 1975 possess so well, Voodoo And The Crypts have cited the indie giants as inspiration in the past and this much is evident on their initial offering.

Their soaring melodies and thrilling instrumentation has gathered them a decent following already and it's only set to increase in the coming months. The quartet have got a strong summer lined up, with performances at a number of festivals including Truck, Tramlines and Y-Not. 

Take a listen to 'Feeling' below

Brighton-based Essex natives Voodoo And The Crypts are an indie foursome comprised of Matt Mitchell on guitar and vocals, Jordan Woolnough also on guitar, Rob Davies on bass and Sam Webb responsible for the racket behind the drum kit. They put out slow-building, hook-driven numbers that are going down a storm on the ever-increasing Brighton music scene. 

With a hint of psych here and a synth or two scattered there, the four-piece are a complete package of a band and sound remarkably similar to The 1975 at moments. Mitchell's slick vocals are easily comparable to that of Healy's and glistening hooks and tropical melodies take centre stage on 'Breathe'. 

Voodoo And The Crypts already sound like a well seasoned outfit and they've been gigging relentlessly throughout the South Coast city recently. Songs like 'Hawaii' and 'Breathe' set an early precedent for what's to come from the lads in the future and an impressive cover of Drake's 'Hold On, We're Going Home' has garnered even more attention for a band full of promise and excitement. We can't wait to see where they go from here. 

Catch Voodoo And The Crypts at Together The People Festival in Preston Park, Brighton in September.
