Why You Should Pay Attention:
The Watkins brothers have a clear ear for an infectious melody since it’s impossible to get a song like “Captive” out of your head once you’ve heard it. Take the straightforward sing-along qualities of The Lumineers, reduce the acoustic leanings, and you’ve got Clemency.

Start Here:
The band’s latest single, “Captive,” is a long song back to God, expressing gratitude and joy at knowing God has first loved us. “I am a captive to your love,” they sing on the song’s chorus. It’s an uptempo number that gets the juices flowing.
