Drums, Other Percussion.ABOUT
Peppercornrent are quite a large acoustic band - based in East London.
With an arsenal of banjos, guitars, mandolin, fiddle, bass, and thundering bodhran, their sound is a wholesome brew of Thames mud, rusty nails and a pint of London gin. It’s sincere, blunt and sexy as fu*k.
The songs sound as though they may have be sung for years and are sturdy enough to become heirlooms. They travel over some dark areas of twisted relationships, love and death, jealously and betrayal, violence and remorse, and of course gin, cigarettes and regret.
Peppercornrent effortlessly wield such wildly changing influences from rock, folk, alt.country, bluegrass to punk. The music weaves an incomprehensibly smooth and accessible sound for true believers and sceptics alike.
Theres a diverse blend of personalities which combine to forge an exciting band that can fill a stage - and often most of the venue as well. Changes in pace, direction and energy are thick, fast and not necessarily anticipated. The band are equally as happy sitting in the beer garden surrounded by glasses, playing truly acoustically, as they are filling some of the larger venues and festival stages.
