1.1: The Depths

Tripping Over Your Pieces

‘Let The Big Beat Save Your Southern Soul’ is the new single by Tribes of Europe & Barbara Stretch, out 27th November 2020 via Integrity Records on all digital platforms and limited edition 7” vinyl.

Using classic pop forms to tell stories about the present, the future and, in the case of ‘Big Beat …’, the past, Tribes of Europe here surge head-long musically and lyrically into the contemporary cultural legacy of Northern Soul.  With the classic vocal of Barbara Stretch, former frontwoman of Pye Records’ soul sensations The Vernons to the fore, the Ely Fallen Angels Choir led by Max Taylor (MIKA, Lily Allen, Clor) add layers of joyous harmonies.

Tribes of Europe, the alter ego of Fenland-based multi-instrumentalist and songwriter Martin Elsey, are also joined by Andy Gangadeen (Massive Attack, Chase & Status, Jeff Beck) on drums, Ric Elsworth (Belle & Sebastian, Foals) on vibraphone & tambourine and Chris Taylor (Poison Girls) on co-production duties at Bluebarn Studios and the finest bass outside Motor City.

Martin describes the single as an overdue “thank you” to the rare soul scene and the people who made the music: 

“I was a young Pink Floyd fan when the Northern Soul scene hit East Anglia. Kids at school told me how their older brothers and sisters had been driving over to Peterborough, taking something called ‘Sulphate’ then staying up all night dancing. I was intrigued. Only several years later when I got along to a few all-nighters did I really start to understand …”

Previous singles by Tribes of Europe & Barbara Stretch have enjoyed national support on BBC 6 Music, BBC Radio Wales, BBC Radio 3's Late Junction and various regional & international shows.

 “An instantly catchy and uplifting retro-futuristic creation” - Get In Her Ears
“Unashamedly ‘60s but with a new twist” - Steve Lamacq, BBC 6 Music

Lyrics:

To understand Fear and Power
You have to understand
Anxiety can turn a Soul Sour

Every heartbeat could be the very last
Every Action could be the final task

But how many sunsets will I watch before that end?
It could be just one, so I've got to mend

I'm going Mask Off
I'm throwing hands down!
Tired of pretending
In a world that's ending

I'm going Mask Off!
Telling the whole town
Watching the red skies dawn as the world drowns

I'm going Mask Off!
I'm Telling the whole town
You better get your life right
Cause I'm going Mask Off!

To understand time and its passing
The 1st rule is no reverse, forward everlasting
Precious moments are being wasted fearing
An end result that's certain and endearing.

But how many sunrises will you watch before that end?
It could be just one, so we've got to mend

I'm going Mask Off
I'm throwing hands down!
Tired of pretending
In a world that's ending

I'm going Mask Off!
Telling the whole town
Watching the red skies dawn
As the world drowns

Cause I'm going Mask Off!

Mask Off

Sold My Soul

Eerie is the second track and probably the most talked about track off BaYaT's second album Purge and carries on from where the debut album So It Begins finished.
From the very start of Eerie you can hear the distinct BaYaT sound with beautiful melancholic harmonies mixed with some real hard rock riffs. The chorus will have you physically moving around the floor with its mouthwatering beat.
Like with most BaYaT's songs, Eerie can be interpreted in various ways, so see it as you will, what you won't be is disappointed.
