Big in the Suburbs

Reporting for duty as the next great British band, this Welly's debut album, 'Big in the Suburbs' (Black colour LP variant) The album centres on the monochrome mundanity but also the unsung beauty of the suburbs; a collection of picture-perfect, alt-pop vignettes, in which regular lives are often quietly on the brink of going berserk. For his debut album - all written and self-produced by Welly himself - this rich tableaux of British life is celebrated for all its tragedies and triumphs.Here are songs about wanting more than you have, a world in flux, doomed romance, and figuring out how to be happy where everybody knows your name (and your Mum's). Welly has been building his creative province all year with a series of singles in the run-up to Big In The Suburbs. First single 'Shopping', for instance, pays tribute to the dying UK high street and today's grass-is-greener mentality, setting out the group's blueprint for Pop on a budget. 'Soak Up The Culture' meanwhile both sends up and adds to the canon of the lost, the Lads-On-Tour Anthem, with lawnmower-themed love-triangle 'Deere John' connecting a story arc with 'Cul-De-Sac' (and the stasis of two people at a romantic dead-end road). With inspiration ranging from the parochial storytelling of Blur or the intellectual electronica of Pet Shop Boys to kitchen-sink noughties bangers like Girls Aloud, Welly show early ambitions to reconnect the great, grassroots British tradition with the mainstream bands once beamed straight into your claustrophobic living room.
