The Beta Band’s Steve Mason has a third solo album due out in March and this funky indie pop tune to sell it. Those familiar with the Beta Band will recognise the trip hop beats and the layered, looping vocals, but Fight Them Back is somehow less sophisticated than that earlier work. Jazzy and melodic, it is Beta Band with a duller adult contemporary edge.
