Their intriguing band name originates from a book Finn was reading at the time, ‘Mistborn’ by Brandon Sanderson. The band loved the magical undertones that this title had, thus adapting it to the name we know them by now. Writing original songs based on real life experiences, Misting tackle subjects such as heartbreak and mental health in their writing which you can hear on Soundcloud now!
After watching a documentary where flat earthers proved themselves wrong, we were inspired to start a movement to gain supporters for our own ridiculous theory – the earth is round, but is in fact the moon that is flat!
Inspired largely by motown and northern soul, Mason names The Beatles and Ed Sheeran to be his biggest influences. Using the musical techniques from both eras, Mason blends the vintage sound of the 60’s with the classic 2010’s songwriter style and creates something brand new, and there’s something in it for everyone.
When asked who she’d love to collaborate with one day, Anna responded with Jack Antonoff, “I would be so intrigued and curious as to what would come out of a session like that”. In addition, Anna mentioned how she would love to write with Olivia Dean and her writing team one day, “they have magic in their songwriting”.
“I am over the moon to be putting on this gig as I feel like it has been a long time coming” CHAR mentioned, stating she is usually a perfectionist which can lead to putting shows like this off – now, she is learning to trust the process, leaning into the support she has from her band and those closest to her.
When asked if she could collaborate with anyone in the world, she chose producer John Congleton; “I first heard of him through his work with Angel Olsen. Nine times out of ten, if I’m listening to an album I like, he had a hand in the production”
“Expect the sassy Rouge flavours with a hint of more vulnerability, it’s going to be more reflective but still fun and powerful. I’m working with a couple different producers on this project and you can expect more guitar, more sass, and some more of my silly stories. I can’t wait for this next era!”
I feel like we made the perfect album together. It’s an album we truly made for ourselves in hopes that people like our creative energy. Should we decide to do another one, we would essentially continue the creative conversations that have already begun with this LP.
“I may have started The Wranglers, but it’s the friendship and the dedication of both me and Leo that made this band what it really is – I absolutely can’t do it without him”
When asked which band they would like to collaborate with in the future, Summertime responded by stating “Penelope Road would be a great band to support and write with! We can draw a lot of unintentional stylistic similarities from them, while also loving their music!”
Whether a song is being considered for the K.M.W. playlist or an artist is gearing up for a filmed session at Vibration Studios, this collaboration provides the perfect opportunity for artists to refine their tracks.
“I’ve been writing music my whole life, from the first song at 6 years old (which had a lot of ‘woah woah woah yeah yeah’ – thanks One Direction!) and just kept writing. It helps me figure out what I’m feeling as a neurodivergent person especially. From there, I’ve developed both musically and emotionally, and I’ve kept writing!”
