'Elegant...emotive...psychedelic...' **** Mojo

'...with his breathy Ian McCulloch-style croon...a burnished psychedelia creeps into the mix and takes this music to the skies.' Uncut

'... an inspired combination, Cheshire's precisely enunciated Nick Drake-like vocals and non-rhyming, allusive lyrics in tense and absorbing combat with the band's expansive sound pictures...' The Sunday Times

'...gorgeous & mind bending...' Lauren Laverne BBC 6 music

"Exotic...extraordinary..." Tom Robinson BBC 6 Music

'...a dizzying and original sound at times reminiscent of Nick Drake, The Beta Band and Tunng but at all times unmistakably his own." FolkRadio

'...partly cloaked in psychedelic hallucinogens...a curiously crooked outsider pop framing upon whose axis a Barrett meets Drake mindset is forged revelling in a slacker soothed psych pastoral oblivion much like an old school Bevis Frond. 'godisinthetv.com

'...psychedelic, quintessentially English...dreamlike and beautiful...' ***** The Sunday Telegraph

Grimm Grimm

Grimm Grimm is the experimental folk/pop project of London-based singer-songwriter Koichi Yamanoha. former frontman of the cult psychedelic-punk group Screaming Tea Party, for him to explore new realms of sound. His honest, fragile, cinematic and sometimes innocent style mixes otherworldly baroque folk and ambient punk. Born in Tokyo, Yamanoha's stirring live performances have captured an essence of Japan and confession and have seen him play infrequent collaboration with Bo Ningen, Faust, Serafina Steer and Le Volume Courbe. Grimm Grimm's enchanting debut 7" single 'Kazega Fuitara Sayonara / Tell The Truth' was released late 2014 via Charlotte Marionneau and Kevin Shields' s Pickpocket Records, and his debut album 'Hazy Eyes Maybe' was released by ATP recordings in June 2015
