COVES
“A thing of beauty. The EP seems to unfurl in gasps, with the dreamy pop tones matched by slivers of visceral noise.” •Clash magazine, Track of the Day
“There’s a wonderful, drowsy, baggy-ness to their pace. Wood’s vocals come in mantras as if Ridgard has simply sampled a voice from some old psychedelic 60s record.” • The Recommender
“They have something great going on with nice production ideas complementing their sweet tunes.”•Huw Stephens, writing in the NME
“A fantastic new band that I’ve fallen for.”• Simon Raymonde, Bella Union/Amazing Radio
“Straight in the record box. This has ‘Indie Smash’ written all over it!” •Jumbo Records, Leeds

OneGirlOneBoy
OneGirlOneBoy are two human beings that live, write, record and produce music together. Influenced by their collection of vinyl records, they have one attic room in which the whole of the process takes place.
OneGirlOneBoy do not write songs about love. Try jealousy, suspicion or seduction and you’ll be closer to the mark. OneBoy says, “We write music that makes people sit up and think; something they can relate to”. Life, in all its warped glory. Like Twin Peaks, their music is distorted. Sometimes lustful, always emotive but rarely loving.
Already featured on BBC Introducing, and recognised as DHP’s Ones To Watch 2013, OneGirlOneBoy have recently played key support slots in Nottingham for Little Comets and Seasfire. Visually captivating, the band receive plaudits for their style and energy, which is as striking in their videos and live performances as their music. OneGirl delivers vocals with a passion that evokes Stevie Nicks in Rhiannon, adding soul and brimstone to the craft that OneBoy provides on guitar.
