It's Grandfather Time Again

Grandfather Birds
From: Newcastle, United Kingdom


This May Bank Holiday will see one of the Devil's favourite Newcastle bands, Grandfather Birds, breakout from their North East enclave and launch themselves on the national consciousness with the launch of their new single, Higher Bridges. It's a complex, I hesitate to call it progressive, slew of alt-pop conceived in the left field with ambitions of annexing the centre ground. Ambitions that will surely be fulfilled if there's any justice.
