Having just come off their first-ever live dates with Black Pumas and with a sold-out Lower Third show pending for June 11th, MRCY have this week unveiled brand new single “R.L.M” alongside a debut project announcement and a second London headline show at the Jazz Cafe for November.
An instant MRCY classic, both the first song the band wrote and the mission statement for a group whose work is as timeless as it is culturally timely, “R.L.M” is a reminder to find magic in the simplest of places.
Introducing the single, Kojo comments: “R.L.M’ is essentially a dream like love song loosely related to someone I was seeing who I used to ride around with in London, and how I was always content doing that with her. With my familiarity with Rye Lane and Barney living in Peckham it felt right using Rye Lane as the point of interest for the tune. But it’s more about London and just cruising around in a car on a rainy night and that being enough for the both of us.”
