about
Though originally from all different parts of the UK, six-piece Blue Bendy met in South London, where they bonded over a shared love of the bands they now cite as their main influences. With references like Stereolab, Broadcast, Tindersticks, Boards Of Canada, Deerhoof and Arthur Russell, Blue Bendy’s idiosyncratic music effortlessly weaves guitars and synths, merging electronic and post-rock with whip-smart, brooding lyricism. Their live performances are different each time, with band members swapping instruments and experimenting with settings. Shows are raw and confrontational, and vocalist Arthur Nolan’s half-spoken vocals are delivered with a knowing, wry smile. The band’s shared sense of humour shines through not only lyrically but also in the playfulness of the instrumentation and melodies. In the past couple of years, the band has shared stages with the likes of Squid, Omni, Drahla, Tiña and Porridge Radio.
