Melting Vinyl & Lewes Psych Fest present:
GRIMM GRIMM
Now based in London, formerly Screaming Tea Party’s vocalist Koichi Yamanoha delivers a cinematic and experimental sound through his new solo project under the name Grimm Grimm. Following his debut ‘Hazy Eyes Maybe’ released by Pickpocket Records – owned by the shoegaze god, Kevin Shields (My Bloody Valentine) - the sophomore album ‘Cliffhanger’ leads a soft psychedelic revolution, melting the folk-inspired acoustics, a common motif which defines his work, to layers of effects and harmonies.
Baroque folk, futurist lyricism and electroacoustic oddities characterize this new experimental work. There are opaque, semi-conscious pop deconstructions such as ‘Afraid‘ or ‘Take Me Down to Coney Island’ as well as daydream songs such as ‘Ballad of a Cell Membrane‘ comparable to the sonic fragility of Syd Barrett‘s later recordings and the cosmic folk leanings of Vashti Bunyan.
LINDEN POMEROY
Linden Pomeroy is a musician and sound artist based in Worthing, West Sussex UK, applying field recordings, tapes, voice and treated guitars into compositions from expansive drones, to delicate ambient ballads.
