Mellah makes strong introduction on ‘Round’

Of all the chance encounters that could trigger an idea for a song, meeting an ex-solider in a pub isn’t the most traditional. That’s what Peckham native Mellah - aka Liam Ramsden - took inspiration from for new single ‘Round’ though.The singer’s today announced his debut EP, out in May via Lucky Number, with the gorgeously stripped back first step. It’s not a particularly light-hearted introduction from Ramsden, but certainly an affecting one - his musings on war and its devastating affects are impossible not to follow down whichever path he takes his thoughts.Speaking of the track, he says: “The song is an attack on the entrenchment of war in the everyday, considering how a person can be broken down and rebuilt to fervently believe murder is not murder if it’s institutionalised.” The ‘Liminality’ EP is coming out on 12th May via Lucky Number.
