AUTOMATIC MODE

Description

Les Sharpeez release their studio album Automatic Mode, which is in line with the Gulf Coast Records label, a record that relies on instinct, attitude, and a cheeky soul. Impossible to tame this sound, it's an adrenaline rush that takes your breath away, an attraction to paths you know you shouldn't take, but that you wouldn't trade for anything in the world. Automatic Mode captures this restless spirit in full bloom: late nights, loud engines, leather jackets, and memories that linger long after the journey ends. Like an engine started after years in a forgotten garage, the sound roars back to life - instantly recognizable, powerful, and driven by a will. At the center is Bill Mead, the unmistakable voice and heart of The Sharpeez, a band long revered for its blend of rhythm & blues and rock with an unmatched style and confidence, whose origins date back to swinging London and the birth of Brit-blues! This album proves that true spirit never fades, it simply waits for the right moment to resurface. With William Mead at the helm of the band, accompanied by Loz Netto on slide guitar, Baz Payne on bass, Brendan O'Neil on drums, and Teresa Revill on backing vocals, the album exudes passion in every measure. The songs burn with raw energy and seasoned control, fierce yet disciplined, refined but never constrained. Automatic Mode is a triumph of attitude and authenticity, a brilliantly produced album that feels like a band fully engaged, totally devoted, and once again leading the pack.
