SKELETAL BLUES

They have been called smoky, cinematic, and ghostly. DJ Steve Lamacq calls them simply "mesmerising". They're a four-piece based in North London. Singer-guitarist Locks Geary-Griffin sings lullabies of a sort, accompanied by two wise men and one wise woman Mike Byrne (double bass), Andy Marvell (drums) and Marian McClenaghan (fiddle). 'Skeletal blues' is the name they give their sound and their debut album.
