Wu Lyf broke many hearts last year (mine included) when frontman Ellery Roberts posted a public letter to the band announcing his departure. As NME reports, this letter was actually the first time that the rest of the band (Joe Manning, Tom McClung, Evans Kati) heard of this, and it was obviously a big shock to all involved.
Well, Wu Lyf are no more, but the rest of the band are still together and have formed a new band titled Los Porcos. Their sound features the same tune and style of instrumentation that we heard with Wu Lyf, but in a crisper smoother way. They have a clean feel-good sound that is both funky and dance-worthy. It’s definitely not the same as Wu Lyf, but that’s quite the point, isn’t it?
They’ve shared two songs, “Do You Wanna Live?” and “Jesus Luvs U Baby.” Both are posted below and available to stream below. They play their first show tonight in London.
