Honddu, Yaglander, Yellow Belly

HONDDU (honn-thee) warp their catchy melodies via a 90s tape machine found in a dumpster. Honddu is Holly Müller and David Neale, a neuro-divergent couple who met in a feminist literature lecture. They create a spectrum of exhilarating atmospheres and irresistible melodies using synths, voice and violin. Their music has been compared to Portishead and Kate Bush, with influences including Jenny Hval, PJ Harvey and Broadcast. Holly's voice is compelling and emotional, her lyrics full of stories, and David creates a warm, idiosyncratic analogue sound, sometimes delicate, sometimes full of power. YAGLANDER: Joel McConkey from Cardiff via London & Falmouth who plays lo-fi bedroom pop taking inspiration from artists such as Wire and The Fall, with a love of pop melodies. YELLOW BELLY creates a lush mix of beautiful and sometimes melancholic melodies, set in an atmospheric landscape. Lush. Cocteau Twins meets Bat For Lashes Skylab Radio.
