Matilda Bond - 'Meet Me in the Middle'
Brighton based Matilda Bond to release irresistible new single “Meet Me in The Middle” which is a song about feeling like a bad friend.
Matilda Bond is a musical collective hailing from Brighton, the diverse and creative metropolis that has imprinted onto their music. Their unique sound sees them merge jazz progressions with soulful vocals that create a progressive and immersive alternative soul sound. Their music also tinges with an urban and contemporary feel with their obvious R&B and Hip Hop influences. Matilda Bond’s most recent single, ‘Long Lost’ saw them taking a step into a new era as they hound their sound and setting the tone of future releases.
Matilda Bond’s new single ‘Meet Me in the Middle’ is sure to make an outlasting impression. Embracing and merging jazz, soul and pop together, the new track is an immersive musical melting pot that once you listen to it leaves you wanting more. With the grooving beats, swirling melodies and soulful horn sections the new single is irresistible offering that blurs the lines of heartwarming and infectious.
‘Meet Me in the Middle’ is about feeling like a bad friend, and the single focuses on the struggle to be in two places at once and Matilda Bond’s hope that the closest people in their life can still hold space for them in the moments they cannot be present. Matilda quotes that the single, “speaks to the difficulty of balancing everything in life and still finding back to each other after a long period of silence.” The single is asking loved ones to be kept in mind when they don’t have the mental space to communicate and an explanation for when they are in a bad place, they still are a massive part of who they are and will always be on their mind.
With many listeners being able to relate to this single, we hope that we can figure it out together and meet somewhere in the middle.
