NON-ALBUM TRACK & "SUMMER HITS" VIDEO"
After missing the first date of their tour with White Denim due to visa delays, London-based fuzz rockers Mazes have finally arrived in the states and will kick off their first-ever American tour tonight in Philadelphia at Johnny Brenda's. The foursome will be at the Brighton Music Hall in Boston on Friday followed by the Bowery Ballroom in NYC on Saturday. The gents have also just added a show July 5 at Glasslands in Brooklyn. All tour dates are below.
Mazes' feel-good guitar pop is filled with catchy choruses and a youthful energy and tailor-made for summer. A perfect complement for the warm weather and long nights. Esquire.com recently included their track "Surf & Turf" in "30 Summer Songs Every Man Should Listen To" while Spin also spotlighted the song in their June "Songs You Should Know," exclaiming: "UK Pavement fans boast chutzpah and hooks, winking that they 'get off trains and wave like Beatles at JFK.'"
Called "a throwback to 1990s left-of-the-dial: hook-laden pop rock" by Tiny Mix Tapes and "an impressive debut that crackles with vitality" by Mojo, the LP's 13 infectious tracks have burrowed their way into the brains of lovers of clever pop, vibrant punk, American indie rock and distortion-heavy jams, on both sides of the pond. "Mazes may share a bloodline with Dinosaur Jr and Pavement, but they also mix grunge and bubblegum pop, with Monkees-sized tunes and hooks big enough to feature on a fishing vessel," exclaimed London's The Guardian.
To coincide with the tour, Mazes have just released a previously unheard non-album track called "Brunswick Stack" now streaming here:
