The Stingrays’ latest track ‘He Said To Me’ is a tribute to 60s psychedelia and remains refreshing and feels innovative.
The Stingrays created a buzz around their psychedelic-funk infused sound last summer, after playing a residency of shows at Brick Lane and stunning crowds at Live at Leeds – now they release their latest single ‘He Said to Me’ after signing to Nice Swan Records.
The new tune has a sound plucked straight from the groove era of the 60’s, with each member of the trio passing the spotlight onto the next throughout the succinct three minute track. Whilst drawing on older inspiration, The Stingrays still pull off a refreshing sound with innovative influence.
The band shared the inspiration behind the track, “‘He Said To Me’ is about the feeling of being young in a new city, the falling in and out of different scenes and all the glorious indulgences that go alongside them. Inspired by Jimi Hendrix and the Kinks.”
