The brainchild of college buddies Ziggy Campbell (lead vocals, guitar), Tommy Perman (bass guitar, synth) and Kev Sim (sampler, melodica), FOUND follow an almost Kraftwerk-ian method of recording - where songs are treated like scientific art experiments. They specialise in pulling sounds from their every day surroundings, cutting’n'pasting them into songs. Since 2005, they have consistently challenged the perceived limitations of home-recording, through a series of self-released singles and E.P.’s - producing aurally stunning, thought-provoking-music-you-can-move-to, in exquisitely designed packaging, from the confines of their bedrooms. This is not merely self-indulgent experimentation for the sake of it, but rather vital, stimulating and (above all) fun pop music.
With the addition of Gav Sutherland (keys, backing vocals) and Alan Stockdale (drums, percussion, live visual projection), FOUND have spent the past 18 months based in Edinburgh, developing their live sound - including performances at BBC’s Electric Proms, Triptych and most recently at the inaugural Connect Festival in Inveraray. They first came to Fence’s attention in 2006 with debut album, FOUND Can Move, issued on their own label (Surface Pressure). Impressed with the band’s jagged mesh of electronic scrapes and harmonious grinds, the Fifers invited them up to play the Fence Homegame Festival in 2006 and 2007 … and are now proud to announce the release of their sophomore album on Fence Records, entitled THIS MESS WE KEEP RESHAPING …
