KIPP BOUCHER & THE CURRENT FANTASY
“I’m the sheriff of Chickentown / I don’t believe some joie de vivre will ever bring me down”
Born and raised in Brighton, Kipp Boucher’s arresting brand of orchestral soft-rock is a cognizant nod to supposedly simpler times. Inspired by the likes of Scott Walker, Margo Guryan and Harry Nilsson, the London-based crooner peels back the curtain on a bygone era viewed so often through rose-tinted glasses; drawing parallels to lament the social condition of the modern day.
Taking lyrical cues from idols such as Randy Newman and Dory Previn, the facetious musings of a young man listless in the face of today’s ideological sprawl are juxtaposed with gorgeous string arrangements which tie the old to the new, in a way not too dissimilar to contemporaries including Weyes Blood and Father John Misty.
THE FAMOUS DAXX
Borrowing sonic subtleties from her wide range of influences, Daxx combines The Beatles’ lucid approach to genre and the funky surf songwriting of Bee Gees with a fresh, contemporary twist, taking inspiration from iconic modern female guitarists such as St Vincent, Anna Calvi and Wolf Alice’s Ellie Rowsell.
OWNERS CLUB
Owners Club are a Dorking based punk/pub rock quintet who signed to Brighton’s Goo Records early last year. Their self-titled, debut E.P was released in October and was described by Notion Magazine as ‘Defying categorisation’, ‘blending elements of post-punk and indie rock with a grungy, joyous, and radiant spirit’.
