When describing alt-pop band Weston Estate, I think Ones To Watch said it best: “Self-described as ‘ya aunty’s favorite boyband,’ I have to say…damn, ya aunty’s got amazing taste.” Inspired by artists like Young Thug, Daniel Caesar, and Frank Ocean, the guys in Weston Estate are able to create genre-bending singles that mix elements of songs by these artists with elements from their own culture. The result comes in the form of tracks like “So Good” and “Pears,” both of which have helped the band reach up to over 183M streams across platforms. It is evident that Weston Estate is one to put on your radar, or on ya aunty’s playlist, especially when they release songs like their latest, “I Saw Something.”
An exhilarating mix of lush indie, vibrant alt-pop, and experimental dance, “I Saw Something” will take you on a musical ride. The track will also take you on an emotional ride, as we get lyrics that touch on some drama in a relationship. Over sweeping pop melodies and chill rhythms, we hear, “I saw something I should’ve never saw” and “I took everything with eyes wide open / I wish I just kept them closed,” causing listeners to wonder what could be going on. Still, the music and the expansive vocals establish a sense of innocence and escapism throughout the track, two feelings that are understandable if you “saw something” you weren’t planning to see.
About “I Saw Something,” Weston Estate share,
“‘I Saw Something’ captures the feeling of shock that follows betrayal – seeing the truth, even when you wish you hadn’t.”
You can listen to “I Saw Something” on platforms like Spotify, Apple Music, and SoundCloud.
