We recently had the opportunity to check out the blazing red hot new single “Nothing Ever Grows” from Bristol (Uk) rock trio Krooked Tongue. You can listen to “Nothing Ever Grows” Here

We are absolutely captivated beyond words with the latest single “Nothing Ever Grows “ from Krooked Tongue . We have been fans of the boys ( Oli Rainsford, vocals, Dan Smith, guitar,vocals and Harry Pritchard, drums ) from Bristol, since the first note we heard and with every new song we fall deeper in awe of the mighty Krooked Tongue.

“Nothing Ever Grows” was recorded and produced with long-time producer Josh Gallop at Stage 2 Studios in Bath, a brooding number which serves to highlight the importance of a positive mental attitude.

We love the sonic groove/stomp on “Nothing Ever Grows” once you hear it you can’t shake it ( that’s a good thing )

Describing the single, vocalist and lyricist Oli Rainsford states: “‘Nothing Ever Grows’ is a right moody geezer of a song. It was one of those tunes that transpired really quickly and it just captured the essence of the mood perfectly. I think it stems from frustration with yourself when you can’t finish that idea, or that lyric. It’s an ode to the tortured artist. It’s a splash of cold water, a slap across the face followed by a shot of whiskey. A defibrillating wake up call to say ‘Oi, if you don’t get yourself in a better headspace, nothing good or prosperous can come out of it’. Hence ‘Nothing Ever Grows’. And I think that relates to every aspect of life, not just to creativity”

August 2024 saw their biggest support tour to date, supporting Kid Brunswick on his final ‘Dead Forever’ tour across the UK.  They’ve also recently shared the stage with False Heads, Virgin Marys, Phoxjaw, Moriaty, Pulled Apart By Horses, The Soap Girls and Mother Vulture and have played slots at festivals such as Icebreaker, Dot to Dot, The Godney Gathering, Estonia’s Tallinn Music Week and Burn It Down.

We have saying it for a while but it bears repeating…. Krooked Tongue is on the verge of something really big and “Nothing Ever Grows” only reinforces our thoughts about this . So climb on board and strap in because it’s going to be positively amazing.
