Weater Report This is This

This Oceanic Feeling is a new cinematic three piece band featuring singer/songwriter and producer Chris Braide, bass player Lee Pomeroy and drummer Ash Soan. The album features 12 songs about dualism and ego death. Recorded during winter 2014 and featuring some of the most dynamic musicianship you are likely to hear this year. This album is a must for fans of great melodies, meaningful lyrics in the age of mass consumerism, empty self-obsession and the selfie.

This is the first original music from Jarvis Cocker since the “Further Complications” album in 2009. JARV IS… a band featuring Jarvis Cocker (vocals, guitar, percussion), Serafina Steer (harp, keyboards, vocals), Emma Smith (violin, guitar vocals), Andrew McKinney (bass, vocals), Jason Buckle (synthesiser & electronic treatments) & Adam Betts (drums, percussion, vocals). JARV IS… was conceived as a way of writing songs in collaboration with an audience. As the material they were playing was in a state of flux the band decided to record their live shows so that they could monitor how the songs were developing. After an appearance at the Desert Daze festival in California, Geoff Barrow (Portishead, Beak>) suggested that these recordings could be used as the basis for an album.
