We've been recording our second album. Here's some pics....
This is sargasso trio. The united sound of three songwriters; emily siddall, pete murdoch and ben winn. They first met in 2002, playing samba. From this they fell into writing acoustic synth-folk, latin lovesongs, odes to the road and ballads of the sea. On any given song they might play guitars, drums, keyboards, samples or saucepans, bottles or customised rhythm shoes. and they bind this all with a love of vocal harmony.
Pete Murdoch's approach to the guitar comes from a love of the independent, the unusual and dark. His songs are modern life, country lament and local myth rewritten. Emily Siddall's old four track demos were the spark that started the heart of the band; her songs are lustful and lonely, or like calypso come-ons with words sharp as voodoo pins. Ben Winn, originally a drummer, creates a kind of synthesised soul sung by the silent type; jaded and fragile or uncompromising and unusual. As a live band, they continue this multi-instrumental approach and through this bring these diverse styles together. Their debut album Burnin' Burnin' Burnin' is out now on Boyscout Recordings.
