The indie veterans shine on their cathartic and introspective latest single

Already established as UK indie pop royalty, Mumm-ra are a band who continually re-establish their affable charm and effortlessly catchy appeal whenever they release something new, and their latest single ‘Washout’ does a great job of highlighting their enduring allure.

The track, their first new release in four years, is one that many listeners will resonate with in an all too real way. Exploring the challenges that come with growing older, trying to live up to weighty expectations and the changes and shifts that come with time, ‘Washout’ feels like an ode to social anxiety, sprawling and anthemic throughout. The new single showcases Mumm-ra as an outfit still at the top of their game, providing adventurous and fun sounds that are laced in catharsis and a powerful dose of reality.
