Ewan Merrett and Callum Merrett, two brothers from Bath (UK), formed Bad Sounds a few years ago. They haven’t yet delivered on the promise of their early output, but with their new single, the ambitious duo give it a new go.

Following last year’s Sympathetic Vibrations and Breathe, Permanent is the third single off their new EP Escaping From A Violent Time, Vol. 1. The EP was written and recorded in an underground former prison cell in Bristol. It was produced by the Merrett brothers themselves.

Talking about this bright and funky song, they explain: “It’s primarily about acceptance. Learning how to accept your own shortcomings, and your own personality. Sometimes I feel like I just mirror the people around me in social situations, and started to worry that I didn’t even really have a personality of my own.”
