Mortland Release Debut Album Devil May Care

MORTLAND | DEVIL MAY CARE

About Mortland

Mortland are a 5-piece hard rock band based in Nottingham (UK) built around the partnership of guitarist Andy Shortland and vocalist Matt Moreton, both ex-members of Cloven Hoof and Tom Galley’s Phenomena, with the line-up completed by drummer Jordan Spencer from Evil Scarecrow, producer/guitarist Dave Buckley and bassist Nick Watson. The band was formed in 2017 as a fun, side project playing rock covers in local bars, but quickly became a more serious proposition as an increasing number of original songs began to be written, and by spring of 2018 recording sessions began for the first MORTLAND album.

The Album

Check out the promo video – TotalRock’s/Keep It Rock’s Dunk even gets a quote!

MORTLAND’s debut album, DEVIL MAY CARE, has just been released and deals with themes of religion, environmentalism, the effects of modern technology on society, as well as a wry look at our modern political leaders, all wrapped up in a package of big riffs and bigger choruses!

Devil May Care is packed from start to finish with good old fashioned straight ahead rock. Tracks are well written, well produced and each one offers something a little bit different from the last while keeping in a similar vein.

Mortland on TotalRock

We had the worldwide exclusive plays of the band’s tracks Light The Fuse and Dirty Egos – the accompanying video of which was brilliant. Both songs were well received and showed a different side to the band’s talents.

TotalRock were given a preview of the album before release to play our very own choice and the epic Hope Returns was selected and played on Keep It Rock With Dunk MacKellar.

Mortland Live

The band will be looking for support gigs and festival spots over the next 12 months, while simultaneously beginning work on album number 2!
