The delightfully funky “Mavis” is the latest track from Tim Mellins & the Ten Percenters, who impressed with the track “Too Much Running” in May. “Mavis” starts with a tinge of synths and suave guitars, reminding of Destroyer. Laid-back vocals and funky guitars enter subsequently, leading to a catchy chorus with an effervescent synth-laden backing. “Mavis” is another strong showing from Tim Mellins & the Ten Percenters.
The collective — from Hull and York, UK — describe the track as a “lounge funk song exploring themes of hustle, harsh conditions, and the humour that transcends adversity.”
