Featured Artists - Bluff

Today's featured artists are a 4 piece band from North Wales, likened to bands suchs as the Smiths and Joy Division, they take influence from the Artic Monkeys and the Cribs. Bringing an indie flavour with some 80s/ New Wave tones, we have Bluff!

ABOUT THE BAND:

Their latest single, Momentary Favour released on the 19th December 2018, it is the foursomes latest single, inspired by the likes of the blossom the group describes "Momentary Favour" bringing an 80's new wave vibe that they are keen continue exploring.

Bluff consists of 4 members. Cal Davies plays the guitar and sings, Yanni Westaway-Green is the lead guitarist, Ethan Armstrong plays the bass and Gaz Farley is the drummer. They have been playing shows sporadically for over a year and hope to start playing to bigger crowds on a more frequent basis in the near future. 

The predominant songwriters in Bluff are Cal Davies and Yanni Westaway-Green. As a lyricist, Cal tends to write about personal experiences or events he has observed, and ‘Momentary Favour’ is about hoping a certain someone feels the same way about you as you do about them. Lead singer, Cal Davies is a member of BIMM University in Manchester, studying songwriting.

Bluff recorded this single in their home studio and it was mixed by Tarek Musa, formerly of the band Spring King. The band have previously worked with Rory Wynne and Alex Robertson of RR Studios as they mixed the first and second singles they released called ‘Freckled Tear’ and ’The Dream Machine'.
