In The Spotlight

Strange Hotels – “Let The Music”

Based in Los Angeles, cousins Ben Braden and Nick Sadler have been playing music together since high school. Initially part of various west-coast bands, most notably The Lower 48 from Portland, they decided to form their own duo in 2018. Within weeks of that decision, they got to open for Billie Eilish and Finneas. Since then they’ve had their songs featured on several TV shows such as Shameless and King Of The Road. They released their unique sound on their debut EP “Mixtape” in 2018.

Doing exactly what it says on the sleeve, their new single definitively lets the music do all the talking. Forming a highly danceable groove from the first note, it’s a funky amalgamation of elements from various genres. With a distinct retro vibe from the 70s-infused rhythm and disco violins, they’re blending it with a touch of R&B, dance and soul. Taken from their upcoming album “Hideout In The District”, expected later this year, this insatiable tune makes you want to move your body.
