Dios Mio up their game on new single “Stories”, released on 30 June with a launch party to follow at London’s Old Blue Last on 4 July.
After the band introduced themselves with a couple of raw but highly promising demos last year, the London quartet are back with their full debut release this summer. In a marked progression, Dios Mio benefit from warm, rounded production on “Stories”, which sees that their brand of grunge-tinged pop is effortlessly accentuated. What’s more, built on a rigid rhythm section in which the drums and distorted bass allow for a brash intro, the melodic swells of guitar combined with Helena Coan’s delicate vocal means that “Stories” is perhaps a more diverse song than it might initially appear.
Catch Dios Mio at their forthcoming shows below:
16 May - Underbelly, London
4 July - Old Blue Last, London
