STREAMER’s new single “Festival” is one of those songs that gets you in the mood for live performances. The song came out on the 25th of October in 2024 and is part of a three-member band that draws inspiration from genres such as trance, indie, electronic, and rock, which they have dubbed ‘indie trance’. Thanks to its attractive lyrics and a very catchy tune, “Festivals” chorus is about connecting with fellow festivalgoers. It comprises multiple vocals, appealing guitar lines, and pulsating beats; it makes for a very exciting festival crowd sing-along.

The song is, without a doubt, entertaining, but it also has that particular STREAMER’s edge. Lines like ‘Welcome to the sideshow’ would insinuate that maybe there is something deeper at play about the increasing popularity of DJs at festivals. The critiques compliment the song in that they provide a flip side to an otherwise danceable song. The structure of the song is also interesting as it has builds and drops designed to create anticipation for the listener with an exciting ending comprised of steamy guitar riffs. The anthem for a live test of STREAMER has already won the crowd even before the start of the performance. The band, which features Tom (who performs the vocals and plays guitars and keys), Jez (who does the bass and also the backing vocals and keys), and Tom’s son Freddie (who plays the drums and percussion), is known for putting high energy performances that keeps the crowd on edge. Their technical prowess is clear not just in their live action but also in their recording where they incorporate acoustic and electronic instrumentation into their work.

It’s safe to say that such bands as Underworld, Faithless, Chemical Brothers, or other similar acts have moved the performing of STREAMER’s rock elements up to more than just the incorporation of rock vocals in their performance. “Festival” is the album where the bands strive for progressive development is visible without changing their musical traditions. This is a festival anthem that goes beyond hearing a voice. This is about unity, movement, music, feeling, and fighting against the ordinary. Having such a distinct approach to engulfing a genre-bending sound into their creation, fans of “Festival” truly deserve a better experience, especially for the electronic and indie fans.
