“We spend hours just looking through the inter web and stealing pictures. There’s always an image that stands out and you know what the song is going to be about from that image”

Mausi

Now London based, Anglo-Italian Mausi formed in 2010 after meeting at University in Newcastle and is comprised of Ben Brown on guitar/bass, Benji Huntrods on drums/percussion and Italian born siblings Thomas and Daisy Finetto who sing and play keyboards. The band set up their own label, Redcar Music, to release their ‘Follow Me Home’ debut single in 2011. The follow up, ‘Sol’, really started to define their unique alternative/pop/dance sound bouncing between beach to club from verse to chorus bolstered by boy-girl harmonies and irrepressibly buoyant charm. The breakthrough came with last summer’s feel good hit ‘Move’ which stole the show on the BBC Introducing stage at Reading Festival.
