Tungz are a puzzle, wrapped in a mystery, communicated through off piste melody.
The rising Bristol group are impossible to pigeonhole, fusing wonky Talking Heads style rhythms to glossy production and a surreal sense of humour.
Debut EP 'Okay' is out now, released to Jamz Supernova's tastemaker imprint Future Bounce.
A quickfire UK tour has been confirmed for later this month, with Tungz bringing their ultra-infectious live show to a venue near you.
Speaking about the EP, Tungz said:
“Okay’ is probably the word we use most as a band. It can sound meaningless, but to us it’s the opposite. It’s what we say when we’re starting something. ‘Okay – let’s do it.’ That’s how we feel about this EP. There’s a lot of stuff we want to make, and this is the start.”
EP highlight 'What I Wanted' has just received the video treatment, and it's a colour-soaked treat, the differing hues and backgrounds helping to gently adjust the mood.
Watch it now.
