Forestears
Forestears creatively weave a myriad of musical genres to generate their idiosyncratic sound of indie fusion - blending flavours of afro-beat, latin, nu jazz, trip hop and psychedelia. Playing out of Bristol, they deliver high energy live sets and are beginning to build a buzz landing main stage festival slots, as well as national radio plays from the likes of Bob Harris on BBC 2, and Tom Robinson on BBC 6 music.
Based out of Swindon and born from a love of all things groovy, David Marx and The AK Poets drink heavily from the fountains of Waits and Costello whilst sitting by the same pools as The Clash and The Yardbirds to pump out a record jammed packed full with swinging rhythms, infectious choruses and devilishly witty lyrics.
'The Ghost of Corelli' sees seasoned musician David Marx (previously of The Refugees and solo efforts like'Jesus Was A Socialist' and'My Crucial Execution') take up his own personal palate of wry wit and pop effort (musically checking in everywhere from The Beautiful South on'Jesus Was A Socialist's'White Trees' to The Pogues meets The Cure jaunt'Wedding In America' from the same record), then strain it through the beaten path of rock n roll rhythms, provided here in force by bassist Patrick Luszckz and drummer Richard Skidmore to form a tight package of pure pop prowess ready to stick to the roof of your head like the world's sweetest rock'n' roll treacle.
