The Q-Days
Hailing from Southend and now residing in Brighton, The Q-Days have gathered steam this past few years supporting the likes of The Rifles, Bilk, and Youth Killed It. Image courtesy of Colossal Artists. They’re made up of Zac Mahoney (lead vocals), Ryan Benson-Smith (drums/ vocals), Zack Christie-King (bass guitar/ vocals), and Ash Deakin (lead guitar/ vocals).
They recently released their debut single ‘underboard’ and we’re here to check it out:
Underboard
What The Dream Machine beautifully re-ignited on their debut album The Q-Days have taken to another level. Unlike their Merseyside peers, The Q-Days sound lays far more in the present day than fine 60s pastiche.
The psychedelic meanderings of the Beta Band and The Earlies traipse their Suffolk downs flirting with Cream, The Coral, Oasis, and Ride along the way. Frontman Mahoney resides somewhere between Steve Mason, Andy Bell, and Mark Gardener but with a more robust euphoric sonic, their frontman is an icon in the making.
In years to come, ‘Underboard’ will high up best debut single lists. It’s inevitable. The seeds of hope are being sewn with the most potent of fertilisers. It goes beyond just hope, The Q-Days are powerfully mesmeric. The care and precision of the acoustic guitars chiming in mid-point or grooving bassline should be the masterful work of a band triumphantly delivering their third album as they conquer the world.
The Q-Days are the real day.
