Female-fronted novice band ‘The Redroom’ release new debut single, ‘Coffee’, showcasing the brilliance of their modern-indie cohesion in the 3 minute euphoniously ear-warming comfort track perfect for the pending autumn season.

The Manchester-based rising talent are the North’s most recent silverware, blending sounds from jazz, psychedelic rock and indie in their hit singles ‘Nostalgia’ and ‘Frontline’. ‘Coffee’ very much follows suit but with more of a Loyal Carner-Cage the Elephant sounding amalgamation. The hybrid genre acoustic, featuring fragments of saxophone solos and synths, fits perfectly as the backdrop for the mainstage vocals of lead singer Jess Lewis Ward.

Having written ‘Coffee’ back when she was only 16, the young lyric-writer employs the track as a narration of the virginal purity that is faced with first love, referring to the innocence of ‘coffee in the morning, watch me while I’m yawning’ and ‘watching the sky up above’. The track opens with a chord progression on the electric guitar, partnered with an entrance of the synthesiser for the following two repeated progressions before the vocalist’s estuary resounding voice introduces the melody, inspired hugely by the styles of Joy Crookes and Lily Allen. Lewis-Ward’s vocal range aptly captures the alluringly beautiful array of emotions felt when falling in love for the first time, accompanied by a song structure which peaks and settles interchangeably with an abundance of crescendos and diminuendos throughout.

Releasing the track just after a summer of success, the band have hit an all-time high. After practicing together as group for the first time in 2019, they have triumphed, proving to have a positive exposure trajectory. Making a name in the industry with their debut single ‘Nostalgia’, which accrued over 100,000 Spotify streams, they went on to antecede notable names such as Stereophonics, Madness and the The Kooks in festivals across the UK. 2023 transpired to hold their golden ticket as they performed at the one of Britain’s most loved festivals, Reading and Leeds.

A band only still creating the foundations of their career, it can only be said to hold on tight for what could be to come. The Geordie-born band are a force to reckon with, and certainly a musical sensation to look out for. In the meantime, ‘Coffee’ is the ideal single to get you through the autumn mornings as well as a go-to melody to wind you down in the evening.
