Биография

Fragile Creatures formed in Brighton in 2012. Adam Kidd landed a publishing and recording contract and they were off. He'd always been in bands and they often featured Tom Alty and Aaron Neville: a shared love of making noise transcended the usual limitations of genre. They recruited James Crump on drums, Adam Whittles on bass and soon they were having a wild time recording in nice studios and performing in scuzzy bars. Fast forward to 2022 and we're starting to see the best songs of their career: new single Grandaddy is a perfect slice of power pop whose optimisit chorus hook: "We're never gonna give up on you" masks weighty thoughts about militarism and national pride. The band plan to release a series of singles throughout 2022 while performing their blistering live show as often as possible. The band put out their second album in August 2020: self-recorded, self-released, Punk Yacht is the sound of triumph against adversity, the sound of persistence when all signs tell you to quit, hang up the old six string and step away from the stage. A masterful mixture of contradictory sources combined into the most delightful of condiments. The sound of angry guitars against angelic synths, sweeping piano beside howling leads while furious beats rattle smack into cheeky twangs of bass. In a sense punk yacht has become more than just an album title for Fragile Creatures, it's a mission statement and a blueprint for how they want to make music.
