of Mercury Rides the Soul Train with Ease in New Single “That’s Why”
Filipino alternative
pop/soul trio of Mercury introduces a fresh and exhilarating era with
the release of their new single “That’s Why”—out today via Sony Music Entertainment.
Updating their sonic
direction with bits and pieces of retro-soul, Motown, and ‘70s funk, the band
pays tribute to the sounds of a bygone era while taking listeners on a luscious
blast of timeless grooves and smooth-talking.
“In terms of direction, we think that we’re in a phase where we want to try out new things and discover what else we can pull off together, regardless if the sound is different from the other previous releases we had. And we’re enjoying having to flow around wherever we go,” shares the multi-faceted, genre-blurring band. “That’s the essence of what of Mercury really is, just like the liquid element.”
“The whole band with knōwmaad wrote the lyrics, and I guess it was inspired from my own perspective on my love for my wife,” of Mercury’s Nathan Huang shares. “Originally, the title ‘That’s Why’ came from knōwmaad who gave us a file of production ideas titled daswhy.”
Of Mercury’s “That’s Why” is out now on all digital music platforms worldwide via Sony Music Entertainment.
