shady bard's debut album, From The Ground Up, is out in the UK on Static Caravan and in Japan on XTAL.
Described as 'wonderful' by Word and 'dazzling' by the Sunday Times, the album also received praise from the likes of Drowned in Sound (9/10), Q, Music Week, Organ (album of the week) and Uncut as well as radio plays from Steve Lamacq, Phill Jupitus, Marc Riley and XFM. Tracks have also been used by the BBC and by MTV, who selected Treeology to soundtrack their climate change campaign going out across the world.
Described as a miniature indie orchestra, their line-up includes violin, cello and French horn alongside guitars, piano, percussion and samples. They’ve drawn comparisons to Mercury Rev, Nick Cave, Low, Super Furry Animals, Godspeed and Arab Strap.
