Food People & The Sprigs @ Waverley Bar
Description
Food People
Lila Matsumoto, Greg Thomas, and Matthew Hamblin are Food People. They have been making sounds together since 2018 but have been friends for much longer. Their LP Many Glorious Petals is out on Feeding Tube and tapes and CDrs have been released by labels GLARC, Chocolate Monk, Sound Holes, Cardboard Club, Cosmovision Registros Andinos and others
The Sprigs
The Sprigs is Rory Salter, Ben Murphy & Ben Waggett. Their new album 'For Red Riverbank' is available from Bison Records
Armed with guitars, pipes, samples and bric-a-brac, it'd be easy for the Sprigs to succumb to a totally romanticised nostalgia for an imagined British folkloric tradition. There's enough of it going around. Instead, the gang create a ramshackle, ruddy faced blend of introspective hibernation, real-world anxiety and some absolutely knee slapping, joy inducing tunes!
Their LP Rainsmoked Christmas is out on Slipping in August.
