From Bas Jan's new album 'Back To The Swamp' out now. Listen/Order here: BasJan.lnk.to/BackToTheSwampID
"If Bas Jan can’t drive out into the countryside, the countryside shall come to them. The song is an homage to Margaret Calvert, who designed British road signage." Bas Jan
Video by Sally O'Reilly.
Sally writes and makes videos and performances. Recent projects include the novella 'Help in Cucumbers' (Joan, 2023), the spoken word and music album 'Where They Gather’ (with Kit Downes, October Records, 2022) and the video retrospective 'Three Scoop Complicator’ (Mattflix, 2021) - sallyoreilly.org.uk
Serafina Steer, Charlotte Stock, Emma Smith and Rachel Horwood cast an examining eye over modern times, lost love, Tarot intuition and long days in an everyday swamp. Awash with lush chorale effects, orchestral hewn loops, pin sharp electronic beats and sublime harmonies. 'Back To The Swamp' is filled with thought-provoking stories, it’s a reflective worldview. It’s a polished and poignant collection of perfectly-crafted pop songs that retains their authentic indie edginess.
These new studio recordings feature more accomplished pop production; filled with cerebral one-liners that pluck at the senses. And, there’s a nod to an eclectic mix of influences; The Pet Shop Boys, Lizzy Mercier Descloux, Kate Bush, Heaven 17 and Jon Hassell by way of Brian Eno.
