Gotobeat is proud to present Montrell with Michael Kurtz and guests at The Victoria Dalston.
π π’π‘π§π₯πππ β The band formed gradually after an actor, a producer, a tennis coach and an art history student saw each other perform at a handful of shows in London, and were inspired enough to make a record together.
Montrellβs first EP is the result of Jonnyβs lofi demos rearranged by the band, and recorded in a studio beneath the cobbles of Chagford Street. Chorused and distorted guitars blend with smooth, reverby vocals and brutally honest lyrics.
Having cut their teeth at intimate performances like Sofar Sounds, they are now captivating larger audiences at Paper Dress Vintage, Servant Jazz Quarters and Sebright Arms. Spring 2019 they toured Germany and were chosen by Londonβs Citadel Festival to headline one of their tents.
Enjoying the phased guitar sounds of Tame Impala, the feathery drums of Steely Dan and the clever lyrics of Matt Maltese, they are now shaping their second EP β releasing soon.
The guys end the year on their second European tour through Holland, Germany, and the UK.
ππ’π₯ππππ‘ π§π© β βForeign TVβ sees the psych-pop four-piece introduce a sound that doesnβt allow the band to fall into the plethora of new music; itβs ambient, but with an edge that keeps it from fading into background music. While itβs little to go on, itβs enough to know that Foreign TV are starting strong and no doubt only going to get stronger. β Gigslutz
βForeign TVβ sees the band in laid-back, slacker mode but thereβs a lot more to them than this side. And the track is a veritable earworm as in the few weeks since the gig Iβve unconsciously been humming it without realising β it just comes again and again. β Let it Happen Blog
