Rising From The Ashes

Rising out of the ashes of Prego, London five piece Union Sound Set are already causing something of a stir. Offering a sense of soul lifting euphoria welded to a rush of energy that swoops in to lift you off your feet, the band's lead single, 'Hiding Places' taken from their debut album, 'Start/Stop', ripples with sheer pleasure. From the steady drum beat that keeps time alongside vocals that gradually swell, 'Hiding Places' subtly asserts its power with pure genius. From its humble, gentle beginnings 'Hiding Places' gradually builds, offering a mere few moments of anticipation amidst slower, tender beats before the quintet make their final assault, unleashing a gushing tidal wave that will not fail to transform all as it oozes excitement from every breath taking second.

Union Sound Set may have started their musical career under a different guise, but with tracks like 'Hiding Places' this is the name that is going to have people excited.
