Verlegt von der Neuen Zukunft ins cassiopeia!
Like the ominous skies before a storm, Bristol-based foursome Grandmas House's debut,
Baby You're A Winner, captures both the light and dark of human connection through riotous
rock anthems, whipsmart storytelling, and moments of startling tenderness.
As the interlocking guitar and choral harmonies of title track ‘Baby You’re A Winner’ swirl
into your subconscious, you might be expecting an easy introduction from Grandmas House.
But this Bristol-based foursome’s foundations are built on dancing the fine line between dark
and light. This mission is deadly apparent from the moment Zoë Zinsmeister’s rumbling
basslines kick in. The band’s debut is heavy with opposing elements: melodic and abrasive,
intimate and chaotic, carefully composed yet riotously riveting.
And that’s no truer than in their standout vocal delivery. Guitarist Yasmin Berndt’s signature
snarl cuts through the UK’s current post-punk landscape (but, if pushed, recalls the
unpolished growl of Fontaines DC’s Grian Chatten). Drummer Poppy Dodgson adds a
striking second lead vocal presence, while bassist Zoë Zinsmeister brings a third layer to the
group’s often sinister harmonies.
