Wild Cat Strike are pleased to announce their forthcoming EP!
Commenting on the single, bassist Chris Whitehorn says: “Mustard is a 2020 take on a 1950s waltz. We recorded at Echo Zoo, Eastbourne (UK) where the word around the campfire is that the mixing desk once belonged to Tony Visconti, who had recorded David Bowie with it. We tracked in the room together to keep the feel of how we play it live, then overdubbed guitars and a sumptuous selection of 70s synths. Later we added vocal harmonies (by our label mates Bonniesongs and Natalie Evans, and our mates from Tall Ships and I Feel Fine) to give us that sea shanty singalong sound.” “Mustard can be quite a divisive colour,” continues vocalist Danny Byrom, “whether it’s on some wallpaper or a suit shirt. And our thoughts can be both tasteless and inspired, dependent on context. Just like a pair of mustard-coloured corduroy trousers.”
