Alternative rock trio Sutlej deliver their highly anticipated new single “Tell Me You Care”, a raw and emotionally charged track that further showcases the band’s signature blend of 90s grunge intensity, emo atmosphere, and modern post-punk edge.

Produced by Alex Mountford (formerly of Dead!), “Tell Me You Care” builds on the momentum of their debut single “Let Me Out” (released February 27th, 2026). The band’s sound — heavy yet melodic, familiar but distinctly their own — draws comparisons to Deftones, Sunny Day Real Estate, and Wünderhorse, while carving out a fresh identity rooted in emotional honesty and high-energy dynamics.

Formed in London by Lewis Maddison, George Power, and George Butcher, Sutlej have quickly earned a reputation for intense, captivating live performances. Having already completed two DIY UK tours even before their first official release, the band continues to build a dedicated following through raw, high-octane shows.

With more releases and live dates planned throughout 2026, Sutlej are proving themselves as a vital new voice in the UK alternative rock scene.

“Tell Me You Care” is available now on all major streaming platforms.
