Word of mouth is creating a swell of support for Portsmouth five-piece Kassassin St as they thunderously debut their first single of 2015, off the back of already selling out their first three shows of the year around the Uniting Kingdom. Known for their crazily-catchy sound, To Be Young ventures more into the dance-rock stadium of production, giving listeners a steadfast rock sound that is mixed with anything from the Stereophonics to Soulwax; although early comparisons have been garnered around their likeness to The Music.
The single has also been credited for its engineering by Dan Grech, who is best known for mixing The Kooks, Radiohead and Lana Del Rey. What is good news for fans of the band is that they’ve still kept the fibres of their psychedelic roots in the mix as well; the edge that got them originally recognized by the likes of NME and BBC Introducing when they first debuted with Centre Straight Atom and The Royal Handkerchief Ballet.
Kassassin Street will also be touring sporadically across the U.K. between April to July if you are lucky enough to purchase tickets before they sell out.
