for fans of… Car Seat Headrest, Black Country New Road, The Orchestra (For Now)
*“Building to grand, ragged rock catharsis. If you like Car Seat Headrest, this one is for you.”* Stereogum
*“Big Red’s impressive debut ‘Isn’t He Funny?’ is a howl from the soul”* Clash
Big Red – the solo writing vehicle of Joseph Scarisbrick – introduce themselves with their immediate and tense debut single “Isn’t He Funny?”. Originally conceived as a home for songs that sat outside the world of his other project, The Orchestra (For Now), the band has evolved into a three-piece alongside drummer Charlie Hancock and bassist/vocalist Millie Kirby.
With more music to be announced this year, the new single marks something of a new chapter for Scarisbrick. Where his previous work frequently relied on dense references and literary allusion across The Orchestra (For Now)’s Plan 75 and Plan 76, this new endeavour takes a more direct approach. The writing is confessional and brutally honest, the music stripped back and candid; a band playing together in real time.
