Miami Horror

Andrew Noel

Australian pop group Miami Horror are in the process of putting together their as-yet-untitled third LP, expected to be released late in 2020. In the meantime, the band has been keeping fans engaged with new music.

Following " Restless " from earlier this year, the newest single to surface, titled "Luv Is Not Enough," is an upbeat, disco-tinged pop earworm with vocals provided by Canadian artist Clear Mortifee. With a funky instrumental foundation, Mortifee's vocals lend perfectly to the retro-leaning pop cut, which is quite frankly difficult to refrain from dancing to.

"I noticed that in most of our older music we tend to have a lot of duality," says Benjamin Plant, who started Miami Horror as a solo project. "We were so used to focusing on making something overly tongue-in-cheek, or anthemic and dramatic. For these new tracks, we wanted to find a middle ground. It was important to us to make something that felt cool, but not take it too seriously, and that's how a lot of the upcoming singles were born."
