Today I'm going to be doing a review of Little Sea's new EP, With You Without You.
Little Sea are an Australian pop-rock band, formed in late 2013. Based in Sydney, the band is made up of Andy Butler (vocals and guitar), Oliver Kirby (guitar), Dylan Clark (bass, piano) and Leighton Cauchi (drums), and are signed to music giants Sony Music Australia.
The band's first single 'Thank You' was released in May 2014, and this was followed up by a tour, including a support slot for 5 Seconds of Summer. In July, the group released their EP 'Wake The Sun', which hit number one on the Australian iTunes chart, proving to be an instant hit.
The new EP, titled 'With You Without You' is a 6 track record, including an acoustic version of one of the tracks.
The first track is a song called 'Back to You', and it starts the EP off with a bang. It's upbeat and fun, and shows the band's ability to write; the lyrics are relateable, and work well with the band's overall image. The second track is an absolute tune called 'Friends', and it is by far my favourite song on the EP. It's fun, it's quirky, and is reminiscent of a The 1975 track; I LOVE it.
Next we have 'I Don't Wanna Leave', which is the song that has an acoustic version, and both versions are beautiful, with a great beat and a perfect melody; everything is right with this song. The next track is 'Red Lights' and it shows off Butler's vocals beautifully, as well as showcasing the rest of the band's musical ability. The final track on the EP is the lead single 'Change for Love' which I heard a few weeks ago, and in my opinion, catches the band's sound and passion brilliantly.
I was worried that the EP was going to be very 'samey', and I was going to be bored, but I was pleasantly surprised. However I do think that this EP is only a sample of the talent that this band has, and I think they need to bring their A-Game to the album, is going to be one to look out for.
Remember the name 'Little Sea'. I think this band is going to be huge. They have the talent, the personality, and already have an impressive fanbase, spanning all over the world.
I mentioned the band in a blog post I did at the beginning of the year, 'Who To Look Out For in 2015', and you can check that out here > http://musicglare.blogspot.co.uk/2015/01/who-to-look-out-for-in-2015.html.
