Sometimes all it takes is one song to blow you away and convince you that a brand new band will be the next big thing. That is certainly the case with Orlando, Florida ambient indie rock newcomers Saeros, whose debut single, “Still”, is a stunningly effective piece of art. Vocalist Makenzie Kamal, in the length of just one song, proves herself a gifted vocalist as the waves of ambient post-rock washes over the listener. The three-piece are clearly great at what they do – laying down streams of emotion and passion onto the listener – and while Saeros is hard to define musically, the bright new band reminds us a lot of newer From Indian Lakes, Emma Ruth Rundle (especially her solo material), and even Moving Mountains can likely be counted as influences.
In short, we need more Saeros. We think you’ll feel the same.
